## Description

A town of some 40,000 with a Fortune 500 headquarters: Findlay punches well above its weight as the home of Marathon Petroleum, alongside a manufacturing base spanning tyres and home appliances. Findlay Airport (FDY/KFDY) serves that corporate economy as a municipal general-aviation field on the Interstate 75 corridor — company aircraft, charters and private flyers — but it has no scheduled service, no cargo terminal, no air-freight handling agent and no customs post of its own. Air cargo from north-west Ohio is therefore trucked out, typically to Toledo Express (TOL) a little over 70 kilometres north or to Columbus Rickenbacker (LCK) roughly 170 road kilometres south. Rickenbacker is the region's genuine freight gateway: a former air-force base built around all-cargo operations, served by carriers including Cargolux, Cathay Cargo, Emirates SkyCargo and Atlas Air with Boeing 747 and 777 freighters to Europe and Asia. For shippers in Findlay the short road feeder leg down the I-75 and I-270 is the standard solution and should be planned as part of the air-freight chain. Fittingly for a refining capital, the heaviest local cargo travels by pipeline and interstate rather than by air.
