Grosse Ile Municipal Airport (ICAO: KONZ, FAA LID: ONZ) is a public airport located two miles (3 km) south of the central business district of Grosse Ile, in Wayne County, Michigan, United States. It is owned by the Township of Grosse Ile.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Grosse Ile Municipal Airport is assigned ONZ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA. History
In 1929, the U.S. Navy Air Station opened as a training school, seaplane base and dirigible hangar. The base operated until 1969, when it was closed and turned over to the Township in 1971 for operation as a general aviation airport. A memorial garden sits directly behind Township Hall, the former Hangar One, to honor all the men and women who served in the armed forces at the Naval Air Station Grosse Ile.
The airport taxiways are now going through a major renovation that should be completed next year.
