Outside of our Commercial United flights, the Purdue University Airport is also busy with students flying a fleet of 18 Piper Archers. ✈️🎓 This is the classroom where the next generation of pilots earns their wings.

A huge thanks to everyone who visited us at Purdue Aviation Day. 🛫 We’ve come a long way since the first event in 1911—from a grass strip where Elliott Hall now stands to the ramp we have today. Shoutout to the School of Aviation & Transportation Technology students for organizing another great year. 👏 #FlyLAF #PurdueAviationDay

🎓 The closest you can land to commencement. Heading to campus May 14-16? Flying into LAF puts you just minutes from the stage, so you can spend less time traveling and more time celebrating. 🛫

The layout that built a legacy.🚂️ This vintage aerial view shows the bones of West Lafayette and a very busy Purdue Airport. It was a classic era for aviation, and we are thrilled to bring that commercial spirit back to the community. Skip the long drive and embrace the history—it’s time to #FlyLAF. 🛫

Preflight snacks and caffeine, handled. ✈️🍫 Stop by the self-serve marketplace at the Purdue University Airport before your next departure to grab a quick bite for the terminal or the plane.

Nearly a century of aviation innovation continues at the Purdue University Airport. ✈️ In the 1930s, Amelia Earhart’s Lockheed Electra represented the pinnacle of aviation technology here at Purdue. Today, 50-seat CRJ200 aircraft operating as United Express flights carry that same Boilermaker ambition from the Amelia Earhart Terminal to destinations around the world. The aircraft have changed, but Purdue’s passion for flight remains the same.
