Cape Fear Regional Jetport (ICAO: KSUT, FAA LID: SUT), also known as Howie Franklin Field, is a public use airport in Brunswick County, North Carolina, United States. It is owned by the Brunswick County Airport Commission and located one nautical mile (2 km) northeast of the central business district of Oak Island, North Carolina. Formerly known as Brunswick County Airport, it is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.
Although many U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned SUT by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA (which assigned SUT to Sumbawanga Airport in Sumbawanga, Tanzania).
Cape Fear Regional Jetport covers an area of 185 acres (75 ha) at an elevation of 26 feet (8 m) above mean sea level. It has one runway designated 5/23 with an asphalt surface measuring 5,505 by 100 feet (1,678 x 30 m).
