Jackson County Airport (IATA: JXNICAO: KJXN), also known as Reynolds Field, is a public airport located 3 km (2 miles) west of the city of Jackson in Jackson County, Michigan, USA.

The airport is home to the JCC Flight Center and the annual Hot Air Jubilee (airshow). Until 1984, it had commercial services, operated by Republic Airlines and Simmons Airlines and now serves as a general aviation facility. In 2005 the airport became home to Prestige Aircraft Company LLC, a light sport aircraft manufacturer.

The airport's shorter runway is going to be extened to 1220m in 2007. Runway 6/24 will be abandoned and will be replaced by a new 1630m long runway 7/25, the new runway will be 30m wide unlike 6/24 of 45m width. This is to make way for a GA aircraft factory that will be on the airport grounds.
