## Description

Airships still take shape on the edge of the Great Dismal Swamp: TCOM builds surveillance aerostats at Elizabeth City, one of the few plants of its kind in the world. Elizabeth City Regional Airport (IATA: ECG, ICAO: KECG) doubles as a US Coast Guard Air Station and hosts the Aviation Logistics Center, the service's largest aviation maintenance facility, overhauling C-130s among others. The Wright brothers made history at Kitty Hawk, barely 40 miles east, in 1903. No scheduled or cargo flights operate; air freight routes via Norfolk (IATA: ORF) or RDU.
