Talk:Merle K. (Mudhole) Smith Airport

The attempt at history evidently mixes up Cordova's airports. In 1934, when Mudhole Smith was said to have began using this airport, it didn't exist. Any good map will show that the Copper River and Northwestern Railway ran between the where the terminal/hangar buildings and the runway currently exists. I would very much doubt that the railroad and the airport operated concurrently, with the railroad running directly through the middle of a flight operations area.

It would make sense that this airport was built to support the WWII mission. However, the impression offered is that this role was filled by the other airport. The other airport to me appears to be very small and crowded compared with the other facilities built by the military in Alaska around this same time.
