## Description

Race weekends turn a quiet county field into a busy one: when NASCAR visits the nearby Michigan International Speedway, teams and sponsors arrive in rapid succession at Jackson County Airport/Reynolds Field (IATA: JXN, ICAO: KJXN) in southern Michigan. The rest of the year the airport runs on general aviation — more than 100 based aircraft, flight schools and corporate jets — using a 5,351-foot main runway and a 4,000-foot crosswind runway rebuilt under a 49 million dollar project. What it does not run on is freight: there is no cargo terminal, no scheduled freighter activity and no customs post. The field sits on Interstate 94 between Detroit and Battle Creek, in the middle of Michigan's automotive supplier corridor, so time-critical parts move by truck. Airfreight for the region is trucked to Willow Run (YIP) near Ypsilanti, the area's freighter airport, or to Detroit Metropolitan (DTW) and Lansing (LAN), each under an hour away, with US customs clearance handled at Detroit. Jackson also claims a historical footnote as the 1854 birthplace of the Republican Party.
