Laughlin-Bullhead International Airport

2 BUSINESS VIEW MAGAZINE VOLUME 10, ISSUE 8 erving as a gateway to a stunning area of the country, Laughlin-Bullhead International Airport is helping put Mohave County, Nev., on the map as a tourism destination airport. In 2011, it was named Airport of the Year by the Arizona Department of Transportation, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. We recently spoke with airport director James Scheller, and he told us more about the commercial-service and general aviation facility he so proudly serves. Laughlin-Bullhead International Airport’s Identifier is “IFP,” which the local community has dubbed the “International Fun Place.” The airport is a premier destination for aviation, tourism, business, and fun—truly an oasis in the desert. A little over 600 feet above sea level, the airport features a commercial terminal, FBO service, helicopter parking, parking for general aviation, a fire station, and more. Scheller says the airport and its FBO, Signature Flight Support, have both tie-down and hangar space for based and transient customers. A capital-improvement plan for the airport includes the construction of ten (10) nested T-hangars, which will be an FAA-funded project, as Scheller pointed out.
