This path I'm considering is 33 miles in length and the airport is 11 miles from the closest tower. Both towers are existing structures so their placement is okay but I was concerned when I saw that the path runs right down runway 22R. Sigh..... so every plane approaching that runway will be smack in the signal at almost 300 feet 11 miles out from the tower. Now, this airport isn't as busy as it used to be, it was the DHL hub here in Ohio, but they are trying to get it back in operation again either as a package sort hub or maintenance center. Either way, lots of big planes over there.

I somewhat disagree, in terms of the signal, no you don't need approval, but to put a wireless network up with antenna's near any airport the height of the antenna is governed by the FAA, you need their approval from them in terms of an antenna perspective. Antenna heights are governed by distance from runways; give them the exact distances from runways, then they tell you the height allowed at that location.
