Easterwood Airport (IATA: CLL, ICAO: KCLL, FAA LID: CLL), also known as Easterwood Field, is the regional airport for Texas A&M University, Bryan-College Station and Brazos County, Texas, USA. The airport is owned by Texas A&M University. Easily accessible from Farm-To-Market Road 60 West (Raymond Stotzer Parkway), it is located three miles (5 km) southwest of College Station and 0.25 miles from Texas A&M University.

The William A. McKenzie Terminal at Easterwood Airport provides daily flights within Texas to Dallas and Houston. The terminal offers complimentary 2 hour visitor parking as well as drop off areas on the upper level and shuttle/taxi pick up areas on the lower level.

Within the terminal the airline ticket counters, TSA security checkpoint, and boarding areas are located on the upper level. Baggage claim and rental car agencies are located on the lower level of the terminal.

History

In 1938, the Board of Directors of the Texas A&M College authorized the development of an airport at the existing site. The University applied to the Civil Aeronautics Authority (CAA) for certification as a primary flight training school under provisions of the Civilian Pilot Training Program.

In May 1940, the airport was opened and formally named for Navy Lt. Jesse L. Easterwood. Easterwood was a former student of the college who enlisted in the British Royal Naval Air Service in 1917. After being commissioned as Ensign, he was later promoted to Lieutenant in the Naval Air Service and was the second American to qualify as Naval Aviation Pilot. He served with the Royal Flying Corps in 1918 and had to his credit sixteen successful raids behind German lines. He served in three foreign countries and was killed in an airplane accident in the Canal Zone May 19, 1919. He was awarded the Navy Cross posthumously "for distinguished and heroic service as an aviator."

The original facility in 1940 consisted of one hangar and a turf landing strip and taxiway which were eventually paved through funding provided by the CAA, the Works Projects Administration (WPA), and Texas A&M.

In 1948 a large hangar was relocated to the airfield from a US Army flying field near Corsicana, Texas. The FAA established a Flight Service Station (FSS) at the Airport in 1951 and Pioneer Airlines began scheduled air service in that same year. Many changes have occurred over the years including moving the Flight Service Station to Montgomery County and Colgan Air (operating as Continental Connection) and American Eagle now provide scheduled air service.

The first control tower was erected at the Airport in 1952 and a commercial passenger terminal was constructed in 1957. Work began on an extension of Runway 16-34 to its present 7,001 foot length in 1984. At the same time the associated parallel taxiway to Runway 16-34 was also extended.

In 1988, work began on improvements to the Airport access road and initial construction of a new passenger terminal began. The new McKenzie Terminal became operational in 1990. Upon completion of the McKenzie Terminal, plans were made to convert the old passenger terminal into a general aviation terminal to meet the needs of these passengers and pilots, including corporate operators that use the Airport. The old passenger facility was remodeled to meet the needs of this segment of the aviation community and re-opened for service in 1994 as a modern general aviation facility, housing line service and support personnel as well as flight operations.
