HARRISBURG AIRPORT ASSISTANCE

History Harrisburg International Airport

Harrisburg international airport has been serving south-central Pennsylvania for over 100 years. Beginning in 1898, the signal corps of the u.s. Army was stationed here. This was followed by the first military airplanes landing in 1918 at what had become Olmsted field of the fledgling u.s. Army air service.

The Middletown air depot (later Middletown air materiel area) at Olmsted provided logistical and maintenance support of military aircraft until it closed in 1969. In 1968, airline flights moved from capital city airport to the former air force base, renamed as olm stead state airport. The airport was renamed Harrisburg international airport in 1973.architect William Pereira designed the new terminals, completed in 1973.

Prior to deregulation, Harrisburg was served by Allegheny airlines with flights to several northeast destinations, trans world airlines with flights to Chicago, and Altair airlines with commuter flights within Pennsylvania.
