Indianapolis International Airport
This is the largest airport in Indiana. Rated as an International Airport, serves passenger traffic. Additionally, the airport has a large cargo presence, serving as a hub for FedEx. Located on the north side of the airport is a United States Postal sorting center.
Websites of interest would have to include the following:
Until November 11, 2008, the airport passenger traffic was serviced for 51 years by the main terminal on the east side of the airport. On November 12, 2008, the Colonel H. Weir Cook Terminal officially opened, giving a more modern atmosphere to travelers.
Three runways are at the airport:
- 5L/23R - 11,200 feet
- 5R/23L - 10,000 feet
- 14/32 - 7,605 feet
Every hub of transportation is going to have some relation to incidents and accidents but perhaps the one with the greatest tie is the 1987 Indianapolis Airport Ramada Inn. There is a waymark listed for the location, which is just to the east of the airport property.
