DescriptionNorth Palm Beach County Airport (F45), also known as North County Airport, is an uncontrolled general aviation airport located 12 nautical miles (22 km) northwest of West Palm Beach on the Bee Line Highway in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida.
The field is in proximity to, and shares services with, William P. Gwinn Airport (06FA) (more commonly referred to as Gwinn Airfield) which is owned by United Technologies Corporation (UTC). Most charts still show it as the Pratt & Whitney jet engine business unit and is currently operated by its Sikorsky Aircraft business unit. Due to its proximity to the Sikorsky test grounds, North County is often used to test ILS approaches on experimental or prototype helicopters such as the RAH-66 Comanche, SH-60 Seahawk and the S-92.
