Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned TMT by the FAA and ASQ by the IATA[2] (which assigned TMT to Porto Trombetas Airport in Pará, Brazil[3]).

For the 12-month period ending July 31, 2009, the airport had 1,400 aircraft operations, an average of 116 per month: 93% general aviation and 7% military. At that time there were 7 single-engine aircraft based at this airport.[1]
