The Wooster Municipal Airport was a general aviation airport serving Wooster, Ohio, USA. It was built in the 1920s and was closed sometime between 1968 and 1972 and was replaced by Wayne County Airport 3 miles away on North Honeytown Road near Smithville, Ohio.[1] The airport originally had sod runways but received a 3,100 foot paved runway in the 1950s. After closing, the runway was retained as a city street, now named Old Airport Road in Wooster.[2]

Accidents and incidents

  • April 14, 1937: A privately operated Taylor Cub plane took off in poor weather conditions and lacking sufficient power to maintain control. The aircraft crashed a mile from the airport, seriously injuring its two occupants, Harry C. and Thomas B. George of Washington, D.C..[3]

Did you know the roadway once served as an actual runway? Doug Deeken, president of the Wayne County Airport Authority, recently shared some history and insights into the airport. It was started in the 1920s, when it had only grass runways. In the 1950s, it was paved. Today that runway is Old Airport Road. When it began, it was known as the Wooster Municipal Airport. There was also an airport in Orrville. In the 1960s, the airport moved to its current location on North Honeytown Road, Smithville, and it has been known as the Wayne County Airport ever since.}}
