What about the other airports in the area?

There are three airports in Columbus and a fourth in Delaware All can be reached by car within 20
minutes or less from Don Scott Field. All 3 Columbus Airports are closer to freeway interchanges
and interstates and are prepared to support corporate aircraft today.

These airports are: Port Columbus, Rickenbacker, Bolton Field, and the Delaware Municipal Airport. Port Columbus is currently undergoing a decline in ridership, while the Rickenbacker and Delaware airports are currently undergoing expansions of their own.

Bolton Field is already established as a reliever and general aviation airport suitable for corporate use. It is surrouned by industrial, commericial, and undeveloped land and is therefore a much more appropriate location for a corporate jet center than the OSU airport which is surrounded by thousands for residences.

Bolton Field is very close, too. Using a stop-watch and cruise control set at 65mph, we found Bolton Field is

• 2 minutes from I-270,
• 5 minutes from I-270 / I-70 interchange,
• 9 minutes from Hilliard / Upper Arlington Exit,
• 11 minutes from I-270 / 161,
• 15 from I-270 / Sawmill,
• 20 minutes I-270 / 315, and
• 21 minutes from 161 / 315.
