History
In 1927, the airport began as a landing field before officially being claimed as Lindley Field with passenger service and mail service later that year.

After briefly closing during the Second World War, the airport reopened in 1937 and had two all-weather runways available. A brand new modern passenger terminal opened in 1958; two decades later it became apparent that a larger capacity would be needed, and a new airport terminal and complex was open 1982 under the name Piedmont Triad International Airport.
