The Ottawa Airport… wait… Ottawa has an airport? Yes it does. Some people don’t realize we have an airport. The Ottawa Municipal Airport has been around since 1946. It stations several planes full time and 300 to 400 planes land or take off every month on the 4,500 concrete runway. Airport Operator, Jim Reeder, gives us a little hangar history:

You chance to see the airport is today, at the Annual Airport Fun Day. Lots of planes on display and flying by, an airplane-pull contest, food, drinks, famous pilots and free plane rides for the kids. That’s right–free. Head on out to the Ottawa Airport from 8:00 to 1:00 today for all the fun.

KOFO will be broadcasting live from the event this morning.
