Henderson Executive Airport (Template:Comma separated entries) is a public use government airport located in Henderson, Nevada, 13 miles south of Las Vegas, in Clark County, Nevada. The airport is owned by the Clark County Commission[1] and is operated by the Clark County Department of Aviation. The FAA's National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2009-2013 categorized it as a reliever airport.[2]

It was founded by Arby Alper in 1967 on 912 acres purchased from the city of Henderson, and opened in 1970 as Sky Harbor Airport.[3][4] Clark County bought the airport in 1996 and renamed it Henderson Executive Airport.[5]

Most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, but Henderson Executive Airport is HND to the FAA[1] and HSH to the IATA[6] (which assigned HND to Haneda Airport in Tokyo, Japan[7]). The airport's ICAO identifier is KHND.[6][8]
