Galt Airport is located in the middle of a corn field, in the middle of America, in the heart of McHenry County, Illinois. Our airport, once a dairy farm, was founded in 1950 by Arthur T. Galt Jr. and immortalized in the 1995 novel by Lawrence Gonzales, "One Zero Charlie, Adventures in Grass Roots Aviation."Today, Galt is a thriving general aviation airport home to over 100 aircraft. We offer flight training, full service maintenance facilities, as well as an EAA and CAP chapter.
