Normanton Airport
NTN is Normanton Airport, serving the remote outback town of Normanton in Queensland, Australia, near the Gulf of Carpentaria. This small regional airport is a vital link for the sparsely populated Gulf Country, providing connections that would otherwise require lengthy overland travel across isolated terrain.
