## Description

Feedlots and dairies stretch to the horizon around Dalhart, tucked into the far northern corner of the Texas Panhandle on land once grazed by the XIT Ranch — three million acres behind a single fence. Coded DHT (ICAO: KDHT), the municipal airport began as a World War II Army Air Forces training base and today serves general aviation, business flights and agricultural operators, with no scheduled airline service. Its two asphalt runways of roughly 1,950 and 1,660 metres comfortably take turboprops and business jets, but there is no freight handling facility and no customs post. Cattle, milk and grain therefore leave the county by truck and rail rather than by air. Shippers with an airfreight need route through Rick Husband Amarillo International (AMA), about ninety minutes to the south, or via Denver (DEN) for larger consignments.
