Iowa County Airport (ICAO: KMRJ, FAA LID: MRJ) is a county-owned public-use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district of Mineral Point, a city in Iowa County, Wisconsin, United States.[1] It is included in the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2025–2029, in which it is categorized as a local general aviation facility.[2]
Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this facility is assigned MRJ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned MRJ to Marcala Airport in Marcala, Honduras).[4]
