GWINNETT COUNTY AIRPORT
Briscoe Field (LZU)
Gwinnett County Airport is located on approximately 500
acres just one mile northeast of the city of Lawrenceville.
Briscoe Field is surrounded by industrial areas to the south
and west, the Gwinnett Progress Center to the north, and the
Alcovy River to the east. The airport consists of a single
6,021-foot-long by 100-foot-wide runway capable of handling
all light general aviation and most corporate jet aircraft
in operation today.
In 1991, Gwinnett County
Airport completed a $25 million series of improvements which
included the expansion of airport property to the current
500 acres, construction of the current runway and parallel
taxiway, and installation of an Instrument Landing System (ILS)
on Runway 25. We are also equipped with a Level III AWOS
system and an air traffic control tower.
Gwinnett County Airport is
served by two Fixed Base Operators (FBOs) operating at the
airport. Gwinnett Aviation is located on the north ramp and
can be reached from 6:00am to midnight daily at
770.995.5592. Aircraft Specialists is located on the south
ramp and can be reached 24/7 at
770.277.9000. Both FBOs provide an excellent level of
service to their users.
The tower is open daily
between the hours of 7:00am and 9:00pm. During this time,
pilots can contact the tower using 124.10 as the tower
frequency and 121.80 as the ground control frequency. After
hours, 124.10 becomes the Common Traffic Advisory Frequency
(CTAF). Pilots can also dial into the AWOS for weather
information using 132.27.
Gwinnett County Airport is
governed by the Airport Authority. This five-member board
meets on the second Thursday of every month at 6:00pm.
