## Description

Two runways on an 825-acre site at 4,148 ft, the main one — 12/30 — a concrete strip of about 5,101 ft: that is the physical extent of Burns Municipal Airport (IATA: BNO, ICAO: KBNO) in Oregon's high desert. Roughly six miles east of Burns in thinly populated Harney County, the city-owned field offers 24-hour self-service fuel, a mechanic and a flight school, and hosts the Burns Interagency Fire Zone, which stages initial-attack helicopters and single-engine air tankers here through the fire season. No commercial cargo is handled: there is no freight terminal, no freighter traffic, no scheduled passenger service and therefore no belly capacity, and no customs facility. The surrounding economy — cattle ranching, hay, public administration and tourism around the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge — generates little air-freight-worthy volume in any case. Shipments therefore move entirely by road along US-20 and US-395 to Redmond/Bend (RDM), about 210 km west, or Boise (BOI), about 300 km east, the nearest airports with cargo connections. International consignments requiring customs clearance normally route through Portland (PDX), Oregon's principal air-freight gateway some 500 km north-west; the town has no usable rail connection.
