FAA airport diagram Lincoln Airport (IATA: LNK, ICAO: KLNK, FAA LID: LNK), formerly known as Lincoln Municipal Airport, is a joint public/military use airport located four nautical miles (7 km) northwest of the central business district of Lincoln, a city in Lancaster County, Nebraska, United States. It is owned by the Lincoln Airport Authority.
It is the second-largest airport in the state of Nebraska, serving the Lincoln metropolitan area and much of southeastern Nebraska. The airport is located approximately four miles (6.4 km) northwest of downtown Lincoln, on land immediately north and west of Interstate 80.
The long landing strip is now designated as an emergency landing site for the Space Shuttle, though it has never been used in this way. The airport is also home to Duncan Aviation, a large family-owned aircraft maintenance and refurbishing company. Duncan Aviation has several hangars on the east side of the airport, as well as parts storage on the west side. Facilities and aircraft
Lincoln Airport covers an area of 5,000 acres (2,023 ha) at an elevation of 1,219 feet (372 m) above mean sea level.

History
During World War II, the airfield was named Lincoln Army Air Field and used for mechanics and flight-crew training. It remained open until December 1945 when it was closed and transferred back to the City of Lincoln.
In 1952 the facility was re-opened as Lincoln Air Force Base. After operating as a Strategic Air Command (SAC) base supporting B-47 Stratojet bombers, KC-97 Stratotanker refueling aircraft and SM-65 Atlas intercontinental ballistic missiles, the U.S. Air Force closed the installation in 1966.
Today, a portion of Lincoln Airport is now home to the Nebraska Air National Guard's 155th Air Refueling Wing (155 ARW), an Air Mobility Command (AMC)-gained Air National Guard unit flying the KC-135R Stratotanker. Several Nebraska Army National Guard units are also collocated at the installation, located just east of Runway 36, alongside Taxiway Delta. The Air National Guard's tarmac is closed to general aviation and is guarded by Air Force Security Forces 24 hours a day.
The airport's main runway is also an alternative landing site for NASA's Space Shuttle orbiter.
