Machias Valley Airport (ICAO: KMVM, FAA LID: MVM) is a town owned, public use airport located one nautical mile (2 km) southwest of the central business district of Machias, a town in Washington County, Maine, United States.[1] It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[2] The airport was once served by commercial airline service on Northeast Airlines.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned MVM by the FAA[1] but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned MVM to Kayenta Airport in Kayenta, Arizona).[4] The airport's ICAO identifier is KMVM.[5]
