Dyersburg Regional Airport (ICAO: KDYR, FAA LID: DYR) is two miles south of Dyersburg, in Dyer County, Tennessee, United States.[2] It was formerly Dyersburg Municipal Airport.[1]
Most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, but this airport is DYR to the FAA[2] and has no IATA code.[3] (IATA assigned DYR to Anadyr Airport in Anadyr, Russia.[4])
In 1957-59 it was served by Southeast Airlines DC-3s, and in 1961-63 by Southern Airlines DC-3s. (In 1962, 134 passengers boarded Southern's DC-3s.)
The airport covers 275 acres (111 ha) at an elevation of 338 feet (103 m). It has two asphalt runways: 4/22 is 5,698 by 98 feet (1,737 x 30 m) and 16/34 is 4,001 by 74 feet.[2] The FAA has classified runway 4/22 to be in good condition, while the shorter 16/34 runway is listed in poor condition with major cracks in the asphalt.[5] Due to the condition of the runway, 16/34 has been indefinitely closed since October 2019.
