Fairfield County Airport (ICAO: KLHQ, FAA LID: LHQ) is a public use airport in Fairfield County, Ohio, United States. It is located three nautical miles (6 km) northwest of the central business district of Lancaster, the county seat. The airport is owned by the Fairfield County Commissioners.
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned LHQ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA.
The airport regularly hosts community events such as fly-ins. These events feature food trucks, historic aircraft displays, vintage cars, museum tours, law enforcement displays, and more.
Some of these events are hosted by the Experimental Aircraft Association, which has a chapter at the airport. The Young Eagles regularly host free flights at the airport.
