Martin County Airport (ICAO: KMCZ, FAA LID: MCZ) is a county-owned, public-use airport in Martin County, North Carolina, United States.[1] It is located six nautical miles (7 mi, 11 km) west of the central business district of Williamston, North Carolina.[1] This airport is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[2]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned MCZ by the FAA[1] but has no designation from the IATA[3] (which assigned MCZ to Zumbi dos Palmares Airport in Maceió, Alagoas, Brazil).[4] The airport's ICAO identifier is KMCZ.[5]
