Kelly Field
Port San Antonio's Kelly Field (SKF) has a 11,500-foot (3,505 m) runway which can handle all types of heavy lift aircraft. Immediately adjacent to the runway is 575 acres (232.7 hectares) of mixed use airport property. The Port's airfield has sufficient space available on the ramp areas and terminals for quick re-fueling and efficient turnarounds. The airfield is operated under a joint use agreement with Lackland Air Force Base. Both entities are located on either side of the runway, which affords the airport exceptional security.

Famous quotes containing the word field:
“I learn immediately from any speaker how much he has already lived, through the poverty or the splendor of his speech. Life lies behind us as the quarry from whence we get tiles and copestones for the masonry of today. This is the way to learn grammar. Colleges and books only copy the language which the field and the work-yard made.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
