Thomas P. Stafford Airport
Thomas P. Stafford Airport  is a city-owned, public-use airport located two nautical miles (4 km) northeast of the central business district of Weatherford, a city in Custer County, Oklahoma. Named after NASA astronaut and Weatherford native Thomas P. Stafford, 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 OJA by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA. The Stafford Air & Space Museum, which is also named for Thomas P. Stafford, is located at the airport, and exhibits the Gemini 6A space capsule flown by Stafford and Wally Schirra in 1965 and the spacesuit Stafford wore during his 1969 Apollo 10 Moon mission.
