Greenwood County Airport (IATA: GRD, ICAO: KGRD) is a public airport located 3 miles north of Greenwood, South Carolina. The airport serves the general aviation community, with no scheduled commercial airline service. History
Greenwood County Airport opened in November 1943 as a United States Army Air Force military airfield called Coronaca Army Airfield. It was a sub-base of Greenville Army Air Base, supporting B-25 Mitchell medium bomber training for Third Air Force. Training was accomplished by the 50th Station Compliment Squadron.
The military use of the airport ended on 31 December 1945 and the airfield was turned over to civil authorities and converted into a civil airport.
