Of the 59 airports in Kentucky, 0 have published what they ask for to put you on the hangar waiting list. That is not a judgement of the rest — most places do not publish it anywhere, and we do not guess. Every place below has a page with what the public record says about it, including who to call.
The ten biggest fields in Kentucky
Ranked by the longest runway, which is the one measure of size the public record gives for every field. Be careful reading it as a proxy for hangar demand: the longest runways belong to airline and military fields, and a hangar queue for a private aircraft is usually found at the smaller general-aviation airports further down this page. The FAA used to publish how many aircraft are based at each airport, which would have answered that directly; those fields are now empty.
