Richmond Municipal Airport (IATA: RID[2], ICAO: KRID, FAA LID: RID) is six miles southeast of Richmond near Boston, in Wayne County, Indiana. It is owned by the Richmond Board of Aviation Commissioners.[1] The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 called it a general aviation facility.

The first airline flights were TWA and Delta DC-3s in late 1947; Lake Central replaced them in 1950-51 and dropped Richmond in 1965.
