Facts about Linden Airport (LDJ):

  • The original airport with its intersecting runways and large hangar remained intact until 1998 when the City of Linden, needing more tax-ratable property decided to divide up the underutilized airport to create a shopping center called Aviation Plaza on the north side of the field.
  • Because of Linden Airport's relatively low elevation of 22 feet, planes can take off or land at Linden Airport at a lower air speed than at airports located at a higher elevation. This is because the air density is higher closer to sea level than it would otherwise be at higher elevations.
