Cape Fear Regional Jetport[1][2][3] (ICAO: KSUT, FAA LID: SUT), also known as Howie Franklin Field,[1][2] is a public use airport in Brunswick County, North Carolina, United States.[1] 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.[1] Formerly known as Brunswick County Airport,[4] it is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a general aviation facility.[5]
