Grayson County Airport (PNX) Information

Where is Grayson County Airport?
North Texas Regional Airport / Perrin Field (IATA: PNX, ICAO: KGYI, FAA LID: GYI) is a county-owned public use airport in Grayson County, Texas, United States. It is located between the cities of Sherman and Denison. Formerly known as Grayson County Airport, the airport was renamed in November 2007. It is used entirely for general aviation purposes. Several of the buildings are occupied by businesses, Grayson County government agencies, as well as Grayson County College.

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned GYI by the FAA and PNX by the IATA (which assigned GYI to an airport in Gisenyi, Rwanda).

As a general aviation reliever airport, unconfirmed reports suggest that the airport might potentially (in the distant future) serve as a third airport for the Dallas/Fort Worth Metroplex to handle travellers from its growing northern suburbs. If this occurs, commercial traffic would be focused on regional jet airline operations. A planned extension of State Highway 289 would pass the airport on the west side.
