## Description

One asphalt strip of 4,255 feet (1,297 m) sets the limits at Chanute Martin Johnson Airport (IATA: CNU, ICAO: KCNU) in southeast Kansas: light business jets, turboprops and piston aircraft, no scheduled airline and no freighter service. Traffic is correspondingly modest, with about 1,700 aircraft movements recorded in 2016, 99 percent of them general aviation, and 15 based aircraft in 2022. No cargo terminal, handling agent or on-site customs office is documented for CNU, so commercial belly freight and dangerous goods are not processed here. Shippers in Neosho County therefore truck consignments to a cargo gateway: Wichita (ICT) is roughly 200 road kilometres west, Kansas City (MCI) about 230 kilometres northeast and Tulsa (TUL) some 185 kilometres south. Import and export clearance happens at those airports rather than in Chanute. The field carries the name of expedition filmmaker Martin Johnson, while the town recalls gliding pioneer Octave Chanute. The city-owned airport has no confirmed freight or expansion project at present and continues to serve business, charter and private flying.
