Ogle County Airport History<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
\n

On January 20, 1976 the Ogle County Pilots, Inc (OCPI) was started by a group of pilots who were in need of an airport. The present site was leased and an airport was built with all the infrastructure needed: a runway, lights, wind sock, beacon, and a few hangars.
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since that time, OCPI has bought the land, and have paid for the many improvements. Today, current members of OCPI have continued to pay for all improvements with no assistance from public funding. In order to have funds available for improvements and repairs, the pilots host fly-in breakfasts, conduct a monthly raffle drawing, and corporate stock sales.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n\n\n
