Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, also known as Adams Field, is the principal commercial and general aviation airport serving Little Rock, Arkansas. It offers a full set of instrument approaches across three runway pairs and operates within controlled Class C airspace under a dedicated approach, tower and ground service. For a simulator pilot it provides a realistic mixed-traffic environment with long hard-surfaced runways and full ILS coverage on its main pair.
Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, historically and still commonly known as Adams Field, sits at Little Rock, Arkansas, and functions as the city's main airline and general aviation gateway. The field is named for the former US president and secretary of state, both closely associated with Arkansas. It is a useful destination for simulator pilots seeking a Class C airport with ILS approaches on its principal runways alongside a shorter crosswind strip.
The airport lies within Class C controlled airspace at Little Rock, Arkansas, at coordinates 34.7294 N, 92.2248 W and an elevation of 256 feet. Arriving and departing traffic is worked by Little Rock Approach/Departure before being handed to the tower for the runway environment.
The airport has three physical runways. The main pair, 04L/22R, is 8,265 feet long (listed as 7,968 feet from the 04L threshold) with a hard surface, runway lighting and ILS in both directions. The parallel pair, 04R/22L, runs 7,191 to 8,247 feet, also hard-surfaced, lit and equipped with ILS on both approaches. The crosswind runway, 18/36, is shorter at 6,108 to 6,214 feet, hard-surfaced and lit, but without an instrument landing system.
Little Rock Approach/Departure operates on 119.5 MHz, with the airport ATIS broadcasting on 125.65 MHz. Clearance delivery is available on 118.95 MHz and ground control on 121.9 MHz. The tower frequency is 118.7 MHz, and UNICOM is on 122.95 MHz. A radio frequency of 122.2 MHz is also listed, associated with Jonesboro Radio.
The airport carries the joint name Bill and Hillary Clinton National Airport, reflecting its historical designation and connection to Arkansas's most prominent political figures, while retaining the long-standing local name Adams Field.
The field operates as a controlled, towered airport within Class C airspace, with approach, tower, ground and clearance delivery services all active, supporting both airline and general aviation traffic. Its long, ILS-equipped runways make it suitable for a range of aircraft types in simulator operations.
