Leonard M Thompson International Airport serves the town of Marsh Harbour on Abaco in the northern Bahamas, acting as the principal gateway to the Abaco Islands for both airline and general aviation traffic. Its single hard-surfaced runway and radar-equipped approach control make it a straightforward VFR or IFR destination for pilots island-hopping through the Bahamas.
Leonard M Thompson International Airport (ICAO: MYAM, IATA: MHH) lies at Marsh Harbour in the Central Abaco District of the Bahamas. It is classed as a medium airport with scheduled airline service, making it the main air link for visitors and residents of the Abaco Islands, and a popular staging point for pilots flying light aircraft between Florida and the Bahamian out-islands.
The airport sits at Marsh Harbour in Central Abaco District, Bahamas, at coordinates 26.5101, -77.0851. Approach control for the area is provided remotely by Freeport, reflecting the airport's position within the wider Bahamian air traffic environment rather than a locally based radar unit.
MYAM has a single physical runway, 09/27, 6086 feet long with a hard surface and runway lighting. There is no ILS available, so arrivals and departures are flown visually or under other non-precision procedures.
Freeport Approach can be reached on 126.5 MHz for traffic in the vicinity, with Tower operating on 118.6 MHz and Ground on 124.6 MHz for movements on the field. Nassau Radio provides area advisory and flight information services on 128 MHz (primary) and 124.2 MHz (secondary). UNICOM is available on 122.8 MHz. There is no ILS or other precision navaid associated with the runway.
No published noise abatement procedures are in force at the airport, and pilots should expect standard visual circuit joining in coordination with Tower on 118.6 MHz. International arrivals should be aware that landing fees and diplomatic clearance may apply for foreign civil government flights.
Marsh Harbour Airport continues to handle scheduled airline flights as well as general aviation traffic serving the Abaco Islands. Pilots should confirm current customs, immigration and any clearance requirements for international arrivals before planning a flight to the field.
