The airport opened around 1960 with a 4000-ft runway; in the 1950s Hays' airport was the half-mile square whose southeast corner was at East 13th St at Canterbury Drive. Central Airlines began DC-3 flights to a Hays airport in 1961 (maybe the former Air Force base east of town); they were soon using the present airport. Successor Frontier Airlines pulled its Convair 580s out in 1977.
