Since being assigned a transport mission in 1961, we have flown the C-97, C-124, C-130A and C-130H over 200,000 hours and millions of miles of international, as well as stateside, missions in direct support of U.S. Military missions. From 1961 to 1991, the Wing provided airlift support for the Berlin Airlift and Cuban Missile crises, national and state civil disturbances, Vietnam Conflict, Red Flag, Brave Shield, Volant Oak and Coronet Oak, Desert Shield, and Desert Storm.
Today, Nashville is served by every major air carrier in the United States and is a vibrant part of the nation’s system of air service. To plan for continued success, in 1993 the Authority, with input from all airport constituencies, completed a comprehensive 30-Year Community Aviation Plan, which was updated in 2005.
