Scope and Content

Collection documents the development of and funding for the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport.

Dallas–Fort Worth International Airport opened in 1974 and is governed by a board, which consists of eleven members, seven from Dallas and four from Fort Worth. Growing out of direct competition between Love Field in Dallas and Amon Carter Field in Fort Worth, both cities appointed committees, and by 1965 plans were set for a Dallas–Fort Worth Board. The site for an airport was chosen, and in December 1968, ground was broken at the intersection of the towns of Euless, Irving, and Grapevine. The airport, now known as the Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport, was dedicated in September 1973 and became operational on January 13, 1974. The first commercial flight that day, American Airlines Flight 341, flew from New York to Dallas via Memphis and Little Rock. As of 2012, it was the third largest airport in the world at 7800 hectares and in the top ten for annual passenger numbers at 58,621,369.
