Highest ga distance by state

Miles to nearest general aviation field.

This measure has no better end. The order describes the states, it does not rank them — see the other direction.

Straight-line miles to the nearest public-use airport with no scheduled passenger service. Relevant if you fly yourself or charter; otherwise it mostly indicates how rural a county is. Private strips are excluded.
