==History==
The airport was commissioned during the First World War in 1917-18. The old buildings were renovated during the Second World War, when it was used as a staging base. Due to brisk traffic, new terminal buildings featuring facilities of refreshment, retiring rooms, restrooms, book stalls and visitor's galleries were constructed in 1953.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://nagpur.nic.in/gazetteer/gaz1966/final_gazettee/comm1.html )〕
Sonegaon airport was the hub of the unique "Night Air Mail Service" wherein four planes left from Delhi, Bombay, Calcutta and Madras every night with a mail load from their region and returned to their home base in the early morning, after exchanging the mail at Nagpur. The service was operated from January 1949 until October 1973.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://stampsofindia.com/readroom/b016.htm )〕 Over the years its major traffic was civilian aircraft till the formation of 44 Wing and the transfer of the Il-76 military transport aircraft of the IAF in 2003.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://warbirds.in/oldhtml/wbnagpur.html )〕
