Chicago Executive
Airport
In conjunction with the City of Prospect Heights, the Village
of Wheeling owns
Chicago
Executive Airport (formerly Palwaukee Municipal
Airport). Chicago Executive Airport is
a low-cost/no delay alternative to O'Hare International for
business travelers and for the shipping of airfreight. As
of 1998, 354 aircraft were based at the airport, most of them
corporate owned. Two fixed base operators service the
airport, along with numerous other airport-related business
operations including: air charter, car rental, aviation
consultants and aviation education.
Chicago
Executive Airport has proven
to be a major benefit to the local business community. In
1996, the Illinois Department of Transportation commissioned an
economic impact study on Illinois airports. That study
indicated that Chicago Executive Airport generated over $142
million of economic impact to the area annually.
