About Lowe Army Heliport

Lowe Army Heliport is a military heliport located within Fort Novosel in southeastern Alabama. The installation, formerly known as Fort Rucker, was renamed in 2023 and serves as the U.S. Army's primary center for helicopter aviation training.

The heliport supports U.S. Army helicopter operations rather than commercial airline traffic. It has an air traffic control tower and multiple helipads, but does not operate public passenger terminals, airline check-in areas or civilian baggage claim facilities.

Situated southwest of Ozark and west of Daleville, the heliport is close to Enterprise and within driving distance of Dothan. Ground access to Fort Novosel is by road through nearby communities, and authorized travelers typically reach the area by private vehicle or pre-arranged ground transport.

Because Lowe Army Heliport is an active military installation, access is restricted and non-military flights require permission before landing. Travelers visiting the area can use nearby public road links to continue to Ozark, Enterprise, Dothan and other Wiregrass region destinations.
