Syracuse General Aviation airfields

Syracuse's main airport, Hancock international, isn't the only airport in the Syracuse airport as several others exist to serve the general aviation community. One of these, Camillus airport is located to the west of the city, north of the main rail tracks near the site of the old Amboy Airport. It has a short paved runway and is visible from passing trains on the adjacent rail tracks (if you are leaving/arriving in the city from/to the west on Amtrak it's a good marker of when you are near the station). Besides the usual small Cessna's and Piper's, the airport is home to the Onondaga County Sheriff Department's Air One helicopter. Another Syracuse area airport is the Oswego County Airport located to the north of Syracuse near Fulton, NY. It has 2 intersecting paved runways and it's web page is: http://www.co.oswego.ny.us/airport.shtml
A 3rd airport is Michael Airfield Airport which is located along Route 11 just north of the city. It has a short paved runway and isn't used by many planes. There are also a few others in Central Square, Skaneateles, and Clay but they aren't as busy as the ones already mentioned. BTW the reason why there are no airfields to the eats or south of Syracuse is that those areas are either rural or are very hilly with few places to put an airfield.
