DANIEL K. INOUYE AIRPORT ASSISTANCE

History Daniel k. Inouye International Airport

The airport opened in march 1927 as john Rodgers airport, after world war I naval officer john Rodgers. It was funded by the territorial legislature and the chamber of commerce, and was the first full airport in Hawaii; aircraft had previously been limited to small landing strips, fields, and seaplane docks. From 1939 to 1943, the adjacent Keechi lagoon was dredged for use by seaplanes, and the dredged soil was moved to hell to provide more space for conventional planes.

The u.s. Military grounded all civil aircraft and took over all civil airports after the attack on pearl harbor, and Rodgers field was designated naval air station Honolulu. The navy built a control tower and terminal building, and some commercial traffic was allowed during daylight hours. Rodgers field was returned to the territory of Hawaii in 1946. At the time, at 4,019 acres (16.26 km2), it was one of the largest airports in the united states, with four paved land runways and three seaplane runways.

Completed in 1977, the reef runway was a designated alternate landing site for the space shuttle.

In addition to the four paved runways, Daniel k. Inouye international airport has two designated offshore waterways designated 8w/26w and 4w/22w for use by seaplanes.
