History

Dacy Airport was founded just after World War 2 by B-24 Bomber chief John Dacy and his wife Elsie. The two have since been inducted into the Illinois Aviation Hall of Fame. The airport features flight training services along with aircraft maintenance facilities that can perform major repairs and overhauls.[3][4][5][6]

Facilities

The airport has three turf runways. Runway 9/27 measures 3589 x 105 ft (1094 x 32 m); runway 14/32 measures 2633 x 100 ft (803 x 30 m); runway 18/36 measures 2577 x 120 ft (785 x 37 m).[7][8][9]

The airport operates its own fixed-based operator (FBO), offering parking and hangars, fuel aircraft rental, a pilot's lounge, work stations, and flight instruction.[10]

Aircraft data

For the 12-month period ending August 31, 2019, the airport averages 55 aircraft operations per day, or roughly 20,000 per year. All are general aviation, split evenly between transient and local traffic. For that same time period, there are 34 aircraft based on the field: 32 single-engine and 2 multi-engine.[7][10][11]
