The Morris Municipal Airport MOX (Charlie Schmidt Field) is located on Minnesota Highway 28 west of Morris, Minnesota.  It has one paved runway, 32/14, which is currently 4,000’ long by 75’ wide. (Note: the city is currently waiting on a grant to extend the runway out to 4,898’.  Work is scheduled to begin in September of 2020).  There is also a new parallel taxiway running the length of the runway which will be extended as part of the new construction project.  The cross wind turf runway, 22/4, is 2,635’ long by 150’ wide and is closed during the winter.  It will be taken out as part of the runway extension project.

The airport facilities include the arrival/departure building, two t-hangars, and three heated multi-storage hangars.  Within the arrival/departure building, there is a pilot lounge, conference area, and aviation weather center.

Nav-aid systems include a VOR, DME, and AWOS.  The airport is a self-service airport.  There is a self-service credit card refueling system which was recently updated and provides both Jet A and 100 LL fuels.  Mastercard and Visa are accepted.  A courtesy car is available on request.  For further information call 320-589-2083.
