## Description

In eastern Oregon, freight is a road-and-rail business, and Pendleton proves the point. The Eastern Oregon Regional Airport serves the rodeo town of Pendleton and the surrounding wheat country of the Columbia Plateau, with Essential Air Service links to Portland. It carries no scheduled air cargo: that traffic consolidates at Portland (PDX) about 210 miles west on Interstate 84, with Foreign-Trade Zone 45 and every integrator. The airport's real claim to fame is different – it hosts one of the FAA's major test ranges for unmanned aircraft, so what climbs out here tends to be drones rather than freighters. Pendleton wool blankets, meanwhile, ship out by truck. Forwarders build a westbound leg into any eastern Oregon air shipment.
