Mountain Air Country Club’s private airstrip (FAA 2NC0), perched atop Slickrock Mountain at over 4,432 ft, offers a rare fly-in mountain retreat experience in North Carolina’s Blue Ridge region. Its 2,875‑ft asphalt runway, the highest private strip east of the Mississippi, caters to experienced pilots flying light jets (e.g., CitationJet), turboprops (Pilatus PC‑12), or very light jets (e.g., Cirrus Vision Jet). Guests stepping off the plane find themselves seamlessly immersed in an exclusive lifestyle—walking straight onto a dramatic mountaintop 18‑hole Pete Dye golf course, enjoying spa services, hiking trails, tennis, bocce, and farm‑to‑table dining—all nestled within a gated, award‑winning community with breathtaking 360° mountain panoramas. Whether arriving for a serene escape or an adventure‑filled weekend, flying private into Mountain Air ensures both privacy and unparalleled access to a resort‑style, nature‑immersed mountain lifestyle.
