Dipolog Airport
Dipolog Airport (Filipino: ''Paliparan ng Dipolog'', Cebuano: ''Tugpahanan sa Dipolog'', Chavacano and Spanish: ''Aeropuerto de Dipolog'') is the main airport serving the general area of Dipolog, the capital city of Zamboanga del Norte, in the Philippines. The airport is one of the busiest in Mindanao, especially considering its classification. The airport is classified as a secondary airport by the Civil Aviation Authority of the Philippines (CAAP), a body of the Department of Transportation and Communications (DOTC) that is responsible for the operations of not only this airport but also of all other airports in the Philippines except the major international airports.
In 2005, the airport handled 75,751 passengers. Its passenger traffic has grown at least 52% from year 2000 statistical figures with an average annual growth rate of around 10.4%.〔(Aircraft, Passenger and Cargo Traffic-Dipolog Airport ) Accessed May 14, 2007〕
==History==
During the incumbency of Matias C. Ranillo, Sr. as Governor of Zamboanga peninsula in 1937-1941, President Quezon together with his daughters Zenaida and Aurora "Baby", were invited to inaugurate the opening of the first bridge linking Dipolog to nearby Dapitan in 1939. The bridge stands to this day as the Quezon Bridge. The 600-meter macadam airstrip was opened in October 1941, a few months prior to the outbreak of WWII, by then-Vice President Sergio Osmeña and Chief of Staff Basilio Valdez. They inaugurated the airport on a flight on board a Douglas DC-2 of the Philippine Army Air Corps (PAAC). They were welcomed by Governor Matias C. Ranillo, Sr. but the entourage promptly proceeded to Dipolog Cathedral for a thanksgiving mass since the plane almost crashed at landing. Fa. Nicasio Patangan was the officiating priest.〔()〕
