Naval Outlying Landing Field Spencer is a military airport located two miles (3 km) northeast of Pace, Florida, United States, in Santa Rosa County. It is owned by the United States Navy. NOLF Spencer is one mile north of U.S. Highway 90, 3.5miles west of the City of Milton, just over 6miles east of the Escambia River and about 7miles southwest of NAS Whiting Field.[1]
This airfield is situated on 640acres and has eight runways, all 1800feet long by 200feet wide. These runways are arranged to make two squares, one whose vertices approximately point north, south, east and west, and another which lies directly on top but is rotated 45°.
Its mission is to support helicopter operations of the Naval Air Training Command, and it remains under the control of Commander, Training Air Wing FIVE at nearby NAS Whiting Field.[2]
Although most U.S. airports use the same three-letter location identifier for the FAA and IATA, Naval Outlying Landing Field Spencer is assigned NRQ by the FAA but has no designation from the IATA.[3]
