Kendall-Tamiami Executive Airport (IATA airport code TMB, ICAO airport code KTMB) is a general aviation airport located 13 miles or 21km southwest of Miami, Florida. Originally called just Tamiami Airport for its proximity to the Tamiami Trail, it is owned and operated by the Miami-Dade Aviation Department. There are 450 aircraft based there, primarily light single-engine propeller planes.
The airport is a port of entry with U.S. Customs personnel on hand, although it is not certified for commercial airline use. In recent years, it has gained increasing popularity as a corporate aviation terminal.
It is the main airbase of the Miami-Dade Police aerial unit, and also houses the Miami-Dade Community College's aviation programs. The Wings Over Miami aviation museum is also located at the field.
