​Condon (3S9)

Property acquired in 1951 with 1,400 foot NE-SW runway in place.  This was later expanded to 2,150 feet by 47 feet.  NW-SE 47 foot by 1,300 turf and dirt runway constructed in 1952.  Additional property acquired and present Portland cement runway 60 feet x 3,500 feet and other airport improvements were constructed in 1986 with a federally funded project.  There are no facilities.

Condon State Airport (Pauling Field) was constructed by the Board of Aeronautics in 1953.  With assistance from the FAA in 1986, the Aeronautics Division rebuilt the airport with improved runway alignment.  The airport is located east of State Route 19 in central Gilliam County, one mile east of the community of Condon. 

The Condon state Airport plays a supportive role in the current system, providing geographic coverage and access to the State's airport system.  The airport also serves as a base for agricultural spraying operations.  The Condon area is sparsely populated and is somewhat remote in terms of its location.  As such, Condon State Airport is designated as a Level 4 airport and should continue to be identified a NPIAS airport.
