When asked how they prepare for a trip, most travelers will answer with: taking care of the airfare, travel accommodations and rental car; making sure that everyone has their passport/ID; and getting to the airport on time, among other things.

Does anyone think about the air control towers of the airports they fly out of and into?

Northeast Philadelphia Airport originally opened in the 1930s as Northeast Airport – a grass field with no paved runways. During World War II, the U.S. Army Air Corps intended to develop the site as an airbase, but later abandoned the project.
