It received its name for being in the Miami Valley, so it technically is located in Miami.

The Wright Brothers Airport is not an International Airport, nor situated in Vandalia. Dayton International Airport is, but Wright Brothers Airport is a separate entity, south of Dayton, in a county that I can't remember the name, somewhere near Springboro or whatever, but on the way to Cincinnati.
