Newport Municipal Airport (Arkansas) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Newport Municipal Airport (Arkansas)
Newport Municipal Airport is a city-owned public-use airport located five nautical miles (6 mi, 9 km) northeast of the central business district of Newport, a city in Jackson County, Arkansas, United States.〔 It is included in the National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015, which categorized it as a ''general aviation'' airport. == History == Newport was chosen as a site for an Army Airfield during World War II through the encouragement of Congressman Wilbur D. Mills. The flat land already lent itself to airport usage as most trees had been cleared and the ground had been drained for farming. The project was announced in the middle of May 1942 and construction began almost immediately. Thirty-four farm families were displaced from the main site, along with those living at the auxiliary sites. Construction was rapid given the emergency wartime conditions and within three months the post was to be in full operation. The airfield consisted of four concrete runways 4907x150(N/S), 5004x150(NE/SW), 5000x150(E/W), 5000x150(NW/SE), plus associated taxiways, landing aids, and an extended length parking apron. After the war, it reverted to civilian use.
