Bolingbrook's Clow International Airport (FAA LID: 1C5) is an airport located in Bolingbrook, Illinois, 29 miles (46 km) southwest of the Chicago Loop. It is a small general aviation facility catering to private pilots, students, and commuter aircraft. The airport covers 205 acres and has one runway.

Clow was privately held until 2004. The owner intended to sell the airport to housing developers, but the Village of Bolingbrook elected to acquire the airport. The village intends to expand the airport, which will include steps such as lengthening the runway, and constructing the Illinois Aviation Museum on airport grounds.

Clow features a $100 hamburger diner, Charlie's Restaurant, which serves breakfast and lunch.
