Spencer Airport (ICAO: K60M, FAA LID: 60M) in Spencer, Massachusetts, United States, is a public airport founded in December 1946[1] by Carl Andrews and remains owned by his family. It is currently owned by Jennifer Andrews, whose husband, Gregg E. Andrews, was killed in a plane crash at the airport on Dec 22, 2010.[2] His plane lost power on takeoff, and the wing collided with a tree about 850 feet from the departure end of the runway.[3] Gregg was Carl Andrew's grandson.[2]

Spencer Airport is currently in disrepair. Its single runway (numbered 1/19) is approximately 1900 ft long, but is uneven and ill-maintained. The airport is unattended, but it remains open to the public.[1]
