Kneeland Airport (FAA LID: O19) is a public airport operated by Humboldt County and located 10 miles (16 km) southeast of the central business district (CBD) of Eureka, USA. The airport is co-located with a California Dept. of Forestry (CDF) Helitack Station. Located on a mountain ridge line at over 2,700 ft. above sea level, this key airfield is mostly used by general aviation aircraft, which sometimes seek an alternate airport when nearby low lying airports (i.e. Eureka, Arcata and Fortuna) are obscured or closed by recurrent dense coastal fog.
