Ohio State University Airport (OSU)
Ohio State University (OSU) is a small to medium sized, primarily corporate and general aviation airport, located in the northwest part of the city of Columbus, Ohio. The airfield is home to the Ohio State University's Flight Education program. From basic pre-solo students through advanced ratings, the University provides the bulk of the traffic at this airport. The rest of OSU's traffic consists of corporate aviation as well as a robust Medivac community. Approximately 10 miles southeast of the Ohio State University Airport is John Glenn Columbus International, and the runway configurations of these two airports are somewhat similar. These airports have been confused for one another in the past. With such a wide variety of pilot experience and aircraft capability, the Ohio State Airport presents a challenging environment for controllers and pilots alike. This video prepares pilots for hot spots, challenges and runway configuration details at VGT.
