It offers a full-length instrument runway with ILS guidance to 33, making it a useful destination for VFR and IFR training flights alike in this mountainous corner of the state.
John Murtha Johnstown Cambria County Airport is a medium-sized public airport serving Johnstown, Pennsylvania, and the surrounding Cambria County area. It carries scheduled airline service alongside general aviation traffic, and its name honours the late U.S. Representative John Murtha.
