MCOA was formed to provide airport owners and operators with a forum for information exchange to improve airports and aviation in the state. Early in 1982, representatives of 18 Minnesota airports met to form an organization for that purpose. MCOA is a non-profit organization that was formed with bylaws adopted on April 27, 1983, at MCOA’s first annual meeting.
MCOA's Mission
Ensure the safe operation and adequate funding of all Minnesota airports using the members' collective voices and the exchange of best practices.
