Runway & General Info

Delta City Municipal Airport, whose Federal Aviation Administration identifier is DTA, located at latitude/longitude 3-23-015882N/112-30-132322W, at an elevation of 4,759.4 feet above sea-level has a one-hundred-fifty (150') foot wide, five-thousand-five-hundred-two (5,502') foot length runway, known as 17/35, being a north-south lighted runway with an east-west taxi strip. To aid aviators, there is are Precision Approach Path Indicators (PAPI) and an Automated Weather Observation Station (AWOS) (can be dialed at 435.864.4241). A National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) station are also present to monitor atmospheric conditions. Winters normally provide minimal snow, often making it possible for airplanes to land at Delta when unable to land at other area airports. Construction will begin this summer on a multi-million dollar ITT Exelis Surveillance and Broadcast System unmanned control tower to monitor all air traffic and broadcast that location to all aircraft in the area. Three-phase power is available, as well as a T-1 telecommunications line, culinary water, and natural gas either on-site or adjacent to the airport property. There is a private industrial park, with most infrastructure in place, approximately two miles south of the airport.

A pilot's lounge is open all hours on the north side of the main hangar building, with clean restroom facilities, a soda vending machine, a land-line telephone, and also free Wi-Fi service to our visiting aviators. We believe our airport serves the local area in a variety of ways, all enhancing the quality of life to our area residents. The airport can accommodate a variety of recreational aircraft and activities. There is also a moderate amount of corporate air traffic at the airport as well as provides for access to emergency medical, fire, and search-and-rescue flight activities. Our airport is near to western Utah military installations and occasionally has military exercises conducted at our airport too.
