## Description

Every bag of Kingsford charcoal traces back to this corner of Michigan, where Henry Ford's sawmills turned Model T wood scraps into briquettes – and Ford Airport (IATA: IMT, ICAO: KIMT) in Kingsford still carries his name. Unlike many regional fields, it has a genuine cargo role: CSA Air, a FedEx Feeder carrier, is based here and flies Cessna 208s with express freight to Escanaba, Houghton and Milwaukee across the Upper Midwest. Delta Connection (SkyWest) links the western Upper Peninsula to Minneapolis (MSP) and Detroit (DTW) on CRJ550s under the Essential Air Service program. Forwarders consolidate larger volumes via Green Bay or Detroit. In winter the nearby Pine Mountain ski jump hosts international competitions.
