History
Splane was opened as the municipal airport in 1932. The 2600 foot runway was paved in approximately 1936. It served the area until the 1960’s when it closed. The nearby FKL field became the air carrier airport for the region.
I just met an incredible man who, as an eight year old in 1938, was paid $3 a week to fetch the air mail “bullets” from the Splane Airport!
