## Description

The name honors Bob Sikes, the long-serving congressman who steered military money into the Florida Panhandle – fitting for an airport that lives off aerospace work. At Bob Sikes Airport (IATA: CEW, ICAO: KCEW) in Crestview, north of Eglin Air Force Base, companies such as Crestview Aerospace modify aircraft and helicopters for the military and manufacturers, using a runway of about 8,000 feet. Scheduled and cargo flights do not exist: passengers drive to Destin-Fort Walton Beach or Pensacola, while freight for the northern Panhandle trucks to the hubs, with bulk volumes via Atlanta. The airpark around the field keeps adding hangars – industry, not airlines, writes the story here.
