Syracuse Hancock International Airport is a city owned, joint civil-military airport five miles northeast of downtown Syracuse, in Onondaga County, New York.〔 The airport is off Interstate 81 near Mattydale, New York. The main terminal complex is at the east end of Colonel Eileen Collins Boulevard. The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2011–2015 called it a ''primary commercial service'' airport.〔 〕 Federal Aviation Administration records say the airport had 1,105,143 passenger boardings (enplanements) in calendar year 2008,〔 〕 1,016,571 in 2009 and 1,024,505 in 2010.〔 〕 == History == In 1927 Syracuse mayor Charles Hanna felt his city needed an airport. A location at Amboy in the town of Camillus, New York was purchased for $50,000, and by 1928, the "Syracuse City Airport at Amboy" was handling airmail. At the end of World War II the United States Army Air Corps leased their bomber base near Mattydale, New York to the city. On September 17, 1949 the Clarence E. Hancock Airport opened to the public using a renovated machine shop as a terminal, and replaced the airport at Amboy. The airport had three concrete runways, long and wide. American, Buffalo, Colonial and Robinson Airlines were the first airlines at the airport. In 2004 Syracuse Mayor Matthew Driscoll created a television and internet campaign, ''Fly Syracuse'',〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=FlySyracuse.com )〕 hoping to lower fares and increase passenger traffic at the airport. The airport has since experienced growth thanks to the efforts of local business contributions toward the campaign. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Syracuse Hancock International Airport」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
