Creve Coeur Airport, St Louis Live Cam

Light aircraft line the apron at Creve Coeur Airport near St Louis, Missouri, with one climbing away over the trees past the end of the runway. A fuel sign stands at the edge of the parking area.

The field has a single asphalt strip and handles general aviation only: flying clubs, private owners and maintenance. Its Historic Aircraft Restoration Museum keeps a collection of airworthy machines from the 1920s and 1930s in the hangars here.

The airport lies on the Missouri river floodplain and has gone under water in the worst flood years. The camera faces west along the field, which puts the afternoon traffic against the sun.
