context_page_description: Kingston Airport, also known as Norman Rogers Airport, is a regional airport located 4.3 nautical miles west of the core of Kingston, Ontario, Canada used for general aviation and cargo.
  The airport is named after former MP Norman McLeod Rogers, Minister of Labour and then National Defence in Prime Minister William Lyon Mackenzie King's cabinet. Rogers died in a plane crash on June 10, 1940 while flying from Ottawa to Toronto for a speaking engagement.
context_section_description: Kingston is a mandatory frequency airport with an operating flight service station. The airport also supports a large amount of general aviation traffic, including flight training and general recreational flying. As one of the only public airports to offer an ILS approach along the corridor between Montréal–Trudeau and Toronto–Pearson (along with Ottawa Macdonald–Cartier), the Kingston airport is an important alternate during poor weather conditions.
  There are two Flight Training Units located on the field. Kingston Flying Club, a flight school and charter operation is located in hangar 5 and Fly Kingston/Fly Canadian is located in hangar 4.
  The airport is classified as an airport of entry by Nav Canada and is staffed by the Canada Border Services Agency. CBSA officers at this airport can handle aircraft with no more than 30 passengers.
