Facilities
The airport was formerly named Salt Lake City Municipal 2 Airport. In an effort to reduce confusion with the nearby International Airport, the field was recently renamed. The airport is one of three owned and operated by Salt Lake City Department of Airports, the other two being Salt Lake City International and Tooele Valley Airport. There is a single Fixed Based Operator (FBO) onsite, Leading Edge Aviation, as well as maintenance facilities operated by Leading Edge Aviation and Alta Aircraft Maintenance. Two flight schools, one operated by the FBO, and the other one by Utah Helicopter Flight Academy are located at the airport as well.
The airport also is a training base for the Utah Army National Guard, which operates Apache and Blackhawk helicopters.

—Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815–1902)
“Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.”
