James Clements Municipal Airport (FAA LID: 3CM) is a public airport located three miles (5 km) south of the central business district of Bay City, in Bay County, Michigan, United States. This airport is publicly owned by Bay City.
The airport was dedicated in 1930 in commemoration of Bay City pilots who gave their lives for their country in military service. The Georgian Revival Administration Building became part of to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982, and houses a collection of photographs of those pilots.
It is home port for local chapters of the Civil Air Patrol and the Experimental Aircraft Association. Also centered there is the Valley Aero Club (which celebrates Fathers' Day with an annual fly-in breakfast in early June; and also hosts an air show in August.).
Wetlands on the airport's edges are home to the cream-colored Eastern Prairie Fringed Orchid, which is a threatened and rare wildflower.
