I'm looking for an airport in central North Carolina at which I can
watch airplanes and listen to them on my handheld scanner.


Although not central NC, Hickory (HKY) meets those requirements. Three
flights a day with Delta regional jets, one of the highest in NC for
corporate movements, an a fair amount of training flights.

Hickory is at exit 123 (state route 321) off of I-40. Going North on 321
will put you on the top of the Blue Ridge Mountains, in less than 40
minutes.

I was under the impression from a friend of mine who used to live in
Hickory, NC that KHKY lost their commercial carrier traffic?

- Has it resumed, or did it never go away?
