KPCD is home to West Star Aviation’s Perryville facility, an FAA Authorized Repair Station offering a complete scope of maintenance services for most airframes flying today.  This facility consists of four hangars totaling over 120,000 sq. ft. in hangar and office space. That includes a 28,000 sq. ft. state-of-the-art paint facility with a downdraft filtration system.

After being closed for the entire month of August, the runway at Perryville Municipal Airport reopened on August 31.  The airport recently completed a reconstruction and upgrade project to the 7,000 ft. x 100 ft. runway that included an all-new runway surface, updated lighting systems and refreshed markings.

West Star PCD welcomed the reopening of the runway as the facility looks forward to a busy fourth quarter of the year with multiple Starlink installations, full paint events and interior refurbishments planned for input.

While the runway is currently open, there may be potential intermittent closures to follow as crews finish up grading, electrical work and seeding.  It is recommended that pilots check their NOTAMs for the most up-to-date information.
