Runway 9/27 Extension is a critical element of FLO’s future growth plan. The extended runway will give FLO one of the longest runways in South Carolina. The extension will permit larger and heavier aircraft to schedule flight operations to and from FLO. This will include international cargo aircraft, which will connect the Pee Dee region to markets around the world in mere hours. Also, the extended runway will allow larger passenger aircraft to serve FLO, opening up new markets for air travel and will permit military aircraft to use the airport for flight training. Included with this project is a rehabilitation of the existing 6,500 feet of runway. Project is scheduled for completion in 2026, with an estimated cost of $33,300,000.
