Air India is creating an Airbus A350 order.[3]The fleet needs improvement.[3]
For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021, the airport averages 127 aircraft operations per day, or roughly 46,000 per year. This includes 70% general aviation, 28% air taxi, <1% military, and <1% commercial. For the same time period, there were 75 aircraft based on the field: 56 single-engine and 4 multi-engine airplanes, 12 jets, and 3 helicopters.[4]
The airport got its first control tower in the 1950s with the expansion of services from Braniff, Mid-Continent, and Ozark. Radar was installed in the tower in the 1970s, and the airport soon began operating 24/7.[5]
On May 10, 2014, a Pazmany PL-4 crashed while operating in the traffic pattern at Tri-County Airport. The pilot had completed a 20-minute local flight and returned to the airport to practice landings. After his first touch-and-go, the aircraft experienced a complete lost of thrust while in the traffic pattern. The pilot performed a forced landing. The probable cause was found to be a failure of the reduction drive unit resulting from improper installation of the unit.[6] For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2021, the airport had 126,290 aircraft operations, an average of 346 per day: 90% general aviation, 10% air taxi, <1% scheduled commercial, and <1% military. At that time, there were 623 aircraft based at this airport: 308 single-engine airplanes, 204 jets, 96 multi-engine airplanes, and 15 helicopters.[7]
