Do You Want to Know about General Aviation Serving Societal Needs?

General aviation airports in the United States are diverse and their aeronautical functions have evolved over time. Many airports, for instance, were opened as private landing strips or military airfields in the 1920s, 1930s, and 1940s.

Some evolved into primary airports we use today; one of these is Salt Lake City International (SLC). SLC began as a simple landing strip in 1911, became an air-mail airport known as Woodward Field in 1920, and ultimately was developed into the large hub primary airport it is today.
