Bellefontaine Regional Airport (IATA: EDJ, ICAO: KEDJ) is an airport located in the United States, to the west of Bellefontaine, Ohio.
Bellefontaine Regional is a corporate and general aviation airport operated by Midwest Corporate Air under the auspices of the City of Bellefontaine. It is currently open to the public. It has two runways, Runway 7 and Runway 25. The airport has fuel services available. Planes can use tiedowns or hangars for parking. There are 17 single-engine aircraft based at the airport. The airport is accessible by road from State Route 47.
The airport replaced an earlier airport, Bellefontaine Municipal Airport, which was located four miles northeast of the current airport (to the north of the city, near U.S. Route 68). According to the AOPA, Bellefontaine Regional was, at its opening in 2002, only the second new airport to open in Ohio in the last 30 years.
For the last several years, Bellefontaine Regional has hosted an annual "Airfest" in late summer. The most recent of these airshows took place on 19-20 August, 2006.
