Buffalo Airfield

Buffalo Airfield (FAA LID: 9G0) is a privately owned, public use airport located six nautical miles (7 mi, 11 km) southeast of the central business district of Buffalo, in Erie County, New York, United States. It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a reliever airport.Formerly known as Buffalo Airpark and Gardenville Airport, the airfield is located on the north side of Clinton Street (NY-354) between Union Road (NY-277) and Transit Road (NY-78). It is also about 4 miles (6 km) south of Buffalo Niagara International Airport. The Buffalo Airfield was owned and operated by Robert A. Jacobs from 1986, who purchased it out of bankruptcy (as Buffalo Airpark) and changed the name to Buffalo Airfield. It was previously owned by Anthony "Tony" Riccio (deceased at the time) and purchased out of auction. Jacobs also operated his master plumbing business from this location, Robert Jacobs Plumbing (RJP), established in 1968. He operated an aviation ground school (private and instrument), banner towing company named Rainbow Banner, small airplane maintenance facility, airplane fueling station, and scenic flights with his six small Cessna planes (3-152s & 3-172s) 6538FT/5249D/757MZ. He also hosted several "Fly in Breakfasts" and "Tri-Five Car Shows" at his facility during the 1990s. The aviation mechanic shop for inspections was FAA rated during his operation. Robert Jacobs was successful in securing several grants from the FAA to expand, PTL light and fence the runway. He also financed building several airplane hangars with his construction company, 4500 Clinton Builders. FAA grants were also obtained for equipment to remove snow.
