Orlando International Airport is a major public commercial service airport located six miles southeast of the central business district of Orlando, a city in Orange County, Florida, United States. Before 1974, the land the airport now sits on was largely owned by the United States Air Force, which operated an air force base there. The facility was originally constructed during World War II as Pinecastle Army Airfield, an auxiliary airfield to the then-Orlando Army Air Base, now known as Orlando Executive Airport. At the end of the war, Pinecastle was briefly used for unpowered glide tests of the Bell X-1 from B-29 aircraft before being relocated to Muroc Army Airfield, now Edwards AFB, California for the world's first supersonic flight. Briefly placed in caretaker status, the base was reactivated during the Korean War for development as a Strategic Air Command (SAC) facility for B-47 Stratojet and KC-97 Stratotanker aircraft. Renamed Pinecastle AFB, the base was later known as McCoy Air Force Base (AFB), operating B-52 Stratofortress bomber, KC-135 Stratotanker air refueling and EC-121 Warning Star airborne early warning aircraft.
Orlando-Sanford International
Airport is a public commercial air service airport in Sanford, Florida, near Orlando.
It was originally constructed as a military installation known as Naval Air Station
Sanford that was in operation as a Master Jet Base for carrier-based attack and
reconnaissance aircraft until 1969. Orlando-Sanford International Airport started
life as Naval Air Station Sanford with the airport codes NRJ and KNRJ. Commissioned
on November 3, 1942, the base initially concentrated on advanced land-based patrol
plane trainng, operating PV-1 Venturas, PBO Hudsons and SNB-2 Kansans. Peak wartime
complement reached approximately 360 officers and 1400 enlisted men with 150 officer
and enlisted WAVES (Women Accepted for Volunteer Emergency Service) during 1943-1945.
In 1944, training at NAS Sanford shifted to carrier-based fighter aircraft using
the F4F and FM-1 Wildcat and F6F Hellcat]. The air station also held oversight
of an auxiliary airfield known as Outlying Field Osceola (OLF Osceola) approximately
6 nautical miles southeast of NAS Sanford. Decommissioned in 1946 and placed in
a caretaker status, the base was recommissioned as Naval Auxiliary Air Station
Sanford (NAAS Sanford) in 1950 in response to both the Korean War and the Cold
War. Subsequently redesignated as a full naval air station and renamed NAS Sanford,
substantial upgrades followed in order to turn the air station into a Master Jet
Base for the carrier-based Douglas A-3 Skywarrior (at the time, designated A3D)
nuclear attack aircraft of Heavy Attack Wing ONE (HATWING ONE). In addition to
the Skywarrior, other associated land-based training aircraft supporting A3D training,
such as the P2V-3W Neptune, were also assigned.
Orlando Executive Airport is a public-use airport located three nautical miles (6 km) east of the central business district of Orlando, a city in Orange County, Florida, United States. Opened in 1928 as the Orlando Municipal Airport, the airport was the first commercial airport in central Florida. The United States Postal Service started airmail service to Orlando the following year. The United States Army Air Force took control of the airport in 1940 for use as a training facility and renamed it the Orlando Army Air Base. For six years, the airport remained under military control, primarily as the home of the Army Air Force School of Applied Tactics (AAFSAT) and subsequently as the Army Air Forces Tactical Center (AAFTC).
