Carson Airport — Carson City, United States

Carson Airport, bearing the code CSN, provides general aviation access to Carson City, the compact capital of Nevada tucked against the eastern slopes of the Sierra Nevada mountains. Unlike the larger Reno-Tahoe International Airport to the north, Carson Airport handles no scheduled commercial airline service, instead supporting private pilots, state government-related flights, and local flight training. Its single runway sits at a considerable elevation typical of the Great Basin region, and surrounding mountain terrain can create distinctive wind patterns for pilots to navigate. As the closest airfield to Nevada's seat of government, the airport occasionally sees traffic tied to state business and events at the nearby capitol.
