Richard Lloyd Jones Jr. Airport (IATA: RVS, ICAO: KRVS) is a public airport located five miles (8 km) south of Tulsa, in Tulsa County, Oklahoma, USA. It serves as the reliever airport for Tulsa International Airport.

History

R.L. Jones, Jr. Airport (RVS) opened on July 3, 1958 as a reliever airport for Tulsa International. At that time, the airport had one 4,000-foot (1,200 m) long runway, an aircraft ramp, and one concrete building. Throughout the past fifty years, the airport has grown to become a hub of business and economic activity for the Tulsa region. It now includes three runways, over two hundred commercial and private hangars, and over 500 based aircraft. In 2007, RVS was the seventh busiest general aviation airport in the country. Like many general aviation airports throughout the country, R.L. Jones, Jr. provides Tulsa and surrounding communities with vital transportation services. Operations include charter, business, medical, law enforcement, government, and privately owned aircraft. The airport drives economic activity in the region in a multitude of ways:

The airport provides convenient access to the nation’s air transportation system, allowing business owners to save valuable time by making point to point travel.

The airport’s flight schools make RVS a hub of flight training activity, bringing students from around the world to our community, all needing shelter, food, and other living necessities.

Ground operations, hangar rentals, and engine maintenance and repair services are just a few of the needed services provided by businesses on airport property.

The airport drives business to local suppliers of aircraft engine parts and interiors.

Over 1.5 million gallons of fuel were purchased by aircraft operators at RVS last year.

Commercial operators at RVS employ over 300 area residents, generating a payroll of over $6 million annually.

RVS covers 752.16 acres (3.0439 km) in southwest Tulsa. 120 acres (0.49 km) are leased to the Tulsa County Board of Commissioners for the operation of South Lakes Golf Course.

205 hangars currently stand on airport property.
