History

For the World War II use of the airport, see Coffeyville Army Airfield

During World War II the facility was Coffeyville Army Airfield and was a United States Army Air Forces AAF Flying Training Command training field 1942–1945.

Aircraft operated were Vultee BT-13A Valiants, BT-14s and BT-15s. The airfield performed Basic Pilot School instruction, the second phase of the three-phase training program for pilots.

The facility was closed and turned over to civil authorities in 1947; Continental DC-3s stopped there in the 1950s.

In the 1950s Continental Can Company leased the hangars at the airport and was a subcontractor for Boeing Corporation, building bomb bay doors for B-52 Stratofortresses. This ended in 1958 with the completion of the B-52 contract. Up to this time period, Coffeyville was a very industrious small city in southeastern Kansas. This plant closing along with the closing of other industries was a severe blow to Coffeyville's financial health.

In its heyday, Coffeyville had a dairy, Page Milk Company: an oilfield drilling rig company, Parkersburg; two railroad yards and maintenance operations, ATSF & Katy; a brick company and terra cotta roofing tile company, Ludawece Celadon; a cast iron casting company, and a large oil refinery, Co-Op; on the northwest outskirts was a large smelter. With the exception of the oil refinery, which only has a small operation today, all other industries are gone.
