Sussex Airport (ICAO: KFWN, FAA LID: FWN) is a small general aviation airport located one nautical mile (1.85 km) southwest of Sussex in Wantage Township, Sussex County, New Jersey, United States. It is just outside Sussex Borough. This public-use airport is privately owned by Sussex Airport, Inc.
The airport used to host the Sussex Airshow but the owner has stopped holding the shows while he tries to sell the airport. The township of Wantage is currently studying the feasibility of purchasing the airport.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned FWN by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA.
Sussex Airport covers an area of 96 acres (39 ha) at an elevation of 421 feet (128 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 3/21 with an asphalt surface measuring 3,499 by 75 feet (1,066 x 23 m). For the 12-month period ending June 1, 2008, the airport had 19,257 general aviation aircraft operations, an average of 52 per day.
