History

Established as Pittsburg Airport in April 1940. Taken over by the United States Army Air Force on 25 May 1942 as a basic (level 1) pilot training airfield. Assigned to USAAF Gulf Coast Training Center (later Central Flying Training Command). Conducted contract basic flying training by McFarland Flying Service. Fairchild PT-19s were the primary trainers used. Also had several PT-17 Stearmans and a few P-40 Warhawks assigned. Flight school also operated two auxiliary airfields in the local area. Unpowered glider pilot training was also performed by 21st Army Air Forces Glider Training Detachment from May 1942 until February 1943

Inactivated 20 October 1944 with the drawdown of AAFTC's pilot training program and was declared surplus in 1946. Responsibility for it was given to the War Assets Administration and was eventually acquired by City of Pittsburg.
