Skyhaven Airport
Home to UCM's Aviation Program
The University of Central Missouri’s Max B. Swisher Skyhaven Airport is the only university-owned airport in Missouri. Located three miles northwest of Warrensburg, the airport serves as the training facility for UCM’s nationally recognized aviation program. It is also the community airport for Johnson County, MO. The airport was named in honor of the late Warrensburg entrepreneur and businessman Max Boothe Swisher, who donated the airport to UCM in 1968. The donation sparked the creation of UCM’s aviation and other related programs.
Experiential Learning
Thanks to the Skyhaven Airport, UCM aviation students have extraordinary opportunities for hands-on learning. The airport houses UCM’s training fleet: a Cessna single-engine training aircraft; a Baron Beechcraft Multiengine aircraft; Redbird simulators; and a 737 simulator.
FBO (Fixed Base Operator)
The Max. B. Swisher-Skyhaven Airport provides a high quality learning environment for UCM School of Aviation students, and is also a public use airport that provides a high quality flight facility for transient flight operations and serves as “home field” for many local aircraft owners and operators. In support of our customers and tenants, UCM operates an FBO that provides an array of services to the flying public, that range from fuel sales for both piston and turbine operators to aircraft tie-down/hangar lease.
