There are many airports in Iowa. However, not all Iowa airports have regularly scheduled flights. We do not list the smallest airports, since there is no way to provide you flights from those airports.
Iowa is a Midwest state of the United States. It is the 29th state of the United States, having joined the Union on December 28, 1846. The state is named for the Native American Iowa people. The Mississippi River forms the eastern boundary of the state. The boundary along the west is formed by the Missouri River south of Sioux City and by the Big Sioux River north of Sioux City.
The topography of the state is gently rolling plains. Loess hills lie along the western border of the state. Some of these are several hundred feet thick. In the northeast along the Mississippi River is a section of the Driftless Zone, which in Iowa consists of low rugged hills covered with conifers—a landscape not usually associated with this state.
Iowa has 99 counties. The state capital, Des Moines, is located in Polk County. Iowa experiences a continental climate with extremes of both heat and cold. Winters are brisk and snowfall common, the capital receiving an average of 36.3 inches per season. Spring ushers in the beginning of the severe weather season, as well as bringing increased precipitation and warming temperatures. The Iowan summer is known for heat and humidity.
Iowa's main agricultural outputs are hogs, corn, soybeans, oats, cattle and dairy products. Its industrial outputs are food processing, machinery, electric equipment, chemical products, publishing and primary metals. Iowa produces the nation's largest amount of ethanol. Des Moines also serves as a center for the insurance industry. ( )
