History of Buffalo Niagara International Airport
When Buffalo Municipal Airport was opened in 1926, it was considered one of the country's oldest public airports in the country. It has a small terminal building, a hangar, and four cinder runways, each 3,000 feet long by 100 feet wide. Passenger and mail service began at the facility in 1927. The airport tower was completed twelve years later in 1939. In the 1940s, the airport was expanded to facilitate aircraft manufacturing, test and acceptance flight activity, and airline flights.
