Portland International Jetport Fun Facts
The airfield got its start as a private airfield in the 1920s built by Dr. Clifford "Kip" Strange on his extensive land. The runways were originally grass runways.
The City of Portland bought the airfield in the mid-1930s at the height of the airport's colorful history when eccentric aviators performed in air shows, and unauthorized dogfights took place on the grounds.
During World War II, Portland Jetport was the base for the Civil Air Patrol. From the jetport, they searched all along the coastal waters for enemy submarines.
