"Kingman Field: From World War II to the Jet Age and Beyond" In this episode of Keys To The Jet Podcast, Red takes us on a journey through the history of Kingman Field—a pivotal yet often overlooked airfield in Arizona that played a key role during World War II and beyond. From its opening in 1942 to its role as a massive aircraft storage facility, we dive deep into the history of the aircraft and airmen who called Kingman Field home. Learn about the iconic planes like the B-17 Flying Fortress, P-40 Warhawk, and C-47 Skytrain, the brave men who maintained them, and the boneyard that became a retirement home for military aircraft post-WWII.
Plus, we dive into this day in aviation history and the latest aviation news.
Tune in to hear the full story of Kingman Field, its impact on aviation, and what’s happening in the world of military aviation today!
