About South Arkansas Regional Airport FBO

South Arkansas Regional Airport FBO is a city-owned operation at Goodwin Field, serving El Dorado and the surrounding south-central Arkansas region. The airport sits nine miles west of downtown El Dorado and covers 1,540 acres, with the FBO providing full-service Jet-A and 100LL fueling, deicing, and overnight hangar storage.

The facility's standout feature is a 14,950-square-foot corporate hangar that can shelter aircraft from small singles to large business jets. Several additional private hangars are available for monthly rental. The terminal includes a pilot's lounge, conference facilities, courtesy cars, rental car availability, and complimentary fiber-optic high-speed Wi-Fi. A ground power unit is available on request for aircraft that need external power.

The primary runway, 4-22, measures 6,601 feet with an ILS precision approach, giving the airport reliable all-weather access for most business jet types. A crosswind runway, 13-31, adds 5,100 feet of additional capability. Multiple GPS and non-precision approaches serve both runway ends. Faith Aviation provides on-field A&P maintenance services, so minor maintenance issues can be addressed without relocating your aircraft.

El Dorado is the seat of Union County and has an economic base rooted in the oil and timber industries, with Murphy Oil Corporation headquartered in the city. The town also hosts the South Arkansas Arts Center and the Murphy Arts District, a performing arts venue that has brought new cultural investment to the community.

For charter passengers, South Arkansas Regional provides a capable and well-maintained airport with the services needed for business travel to this part of Arkansas. The city-run FBO keeps things efficient and straightforward, with the ILS approach and corporate hangar providing the infrastructure that private aviation travelers require.
