The Erwin Auxiliary Army Airfield is a former World War II-era airfield near Newport, Arkansas. The site, now in agricultural use, is located south of the city, northeast of the junction of Arkansas Highway 14 and United States Route 67. It had two runways, which formed an X shape. Each was 40–46 metres (131–151 ft) wide and 1,375 feet (419 m) long, with flanking taxiways. The airfield was built in 1942 as an auxiliary to the main Army Airfield at Newport (now Newport Municipal Airport), and was used for training and military exercises. It was briefly reactivated in 1946–49, but was definitively abandoned sometime before 1964.
