Kickapoo Downtown Airport (IATA: KIP, ICAO: KCWC, FAA LID: CWC, formerly T47) is a city-owned public use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) south of the central business district of Wichita Falls, a city in Wichita County, Texas, United States.[1]

Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, this airport is assigned CWC by the FAA and KIP by the IATA[2] (which assigned CWC to Chernovtsy Airport in Chernovtsy, Ukraine).[3]
