Tullahoma Municipal Airport has been recognized as a winner of the Tennessee Aeronautics Division "Red Carpet Award" and has state of the art facilities, including a new, modern terminal which opened in 2010.
It has three runways including one that is 5,500 feet long, capable of handling all types of corporate jet aircraft. The others are a 4,200 foot paved runway and a 2,700 foot long turf runway. A variety of VOR, GPS, and NDB instrument approaches are published for both paved runways and offer the lowest GPS approach ceiling and visibility minimums in this region of Tennessee.
