Alliance Municipal Airport
Alliance Municipal Airport, serving the city of Alliance in the Nebraska Panhandle, fields three runways at a notably high elevation of 3,931 feet above sea level, well beyond what similarly sized airports typically have, reflecting the varying wind directions common across the open High Plains terrain. Alliance sits in a sparsely populated part of western Nebraska, far from the state's larger cities in the east. General aviation and agricultural aviation activity fill most of the schedule across this ranching and farming region, where distances between towns are considerable and air travel fills gaps that roads alone cannot.
