Rocky MountâWilson Regional Airport ( IATA: RWI, ICAO: KRWI, FAA LID: RWI) is a public airport located seven miles (11 km) southwest of the central business district of Rocky Mount, a city located in Nash and Edgecombe Counties in the U.S. state of North Carolina. It is also north of Wilson, a city in Wilson County. The airport is owned by the Rocky MountâWilson Airport Authority. [1]
Piedmont Airlines served RWI from 1961 to 1980. [2] CCAir, operating as US Airways Express, later provided scheduled service to RWI, but traffic fell after the arrival of Southwest Airlines at nearby Raleigh-Durham International Airport (RDU) in 1999, which made flights from RDU relatively inexpensive. [3] The US Airways Express service was suspended in March 2001 and replaced with shuttle bus service to RDU. [4]
Rocky MountâWilson Regional Airport covers an area of 364 acres (147 ha) which contains one asphalt paved runway (4/22) measuring 7,099 x 150 ft (2,164 x 46 m). [1]
For the 12-month period ending March 31, 2017, the airport had 29,810 aircraft operations, an average of 82 per day: 94% general aviation, 4% air taxi, 2% military and <1% scheduled commercial. There was at the time 41 aircraft based at this airport: 27 single engine, 7 multi-engine, 4 jet, 2 helicopter, and 1 glider. [1]
