## Description

Hopkins gets the freighters; Cuyahoga County Airport (CGF/KCGF) gets the executives who would rather not drive across Cleveland. The county-run field in Richmond Heights, about 18 kilometres east of downtown, hosts corporate flight departments, charter operators, maintenance shops and flight schools, and has no scheduled airline service. It also has no cargo terminal and no customs post of its own: air freight and express consignments for the eastern suburbs clear at Cleveland Hopkins (CLE) and travel the last leg by truck. Shippers needing freighter capacity or outsized loads work through Hopkins or through Rickenbacker (LCK) near Columbus, an all-cargo airport roughly two hours away by road. Flexjet, headquartered on the field, has announced close to 1,000 additional jobs over about five and a half years along with new hangar, maintenance and office space. A runway and safety-area rehabilitation is under way; with Richmond and Bishop Roads hard against the boundary, the county is installing EMAS arrestor beds rather than lengthening the pavement.
