MoreDothan Regional Airport opened to commercial activity on February 15, 1965. It is one of the finest aviation facilities in the State of Alabama. It is something for which we can all be proud. It has taken hard work on the part of many dedicated citizens to develop Dothan Regional Airport into the outstanding facility which it is today. The present Dothan Regional Airport had its beginning in 1941 with the construction of Napier Field as part of an expanding United States Army Air Corps project to train additional personnel to meet the needs of World War II. Napier Field was named in honor of Major Edward L. Napier of Union Springs, Alabama. Major Napier was one of the Army's first flight surgeons and was killed in a plane crash at McCook Field in Dayton, Ohio. The first aircraft began operating on the field on October 1, 1941. On December 20, 1941, the first group of British cadets arrived for training. The first American cadets graduated on July 3, 1942 ( 42-F ). In late May 1945, officers from the Mexican Army began P-40 training at Napier Field. The Army deactivated the field on October 31, 1945. The airfield and its improvements were subsequently made available to the City of Dothan and Houston County under an Agreement in 1946 which was jointly accepted at that time. The airport lands lay dormant for a period of time and Houston County later turned its share of Napier Field to the City. The Dothan Houston County Airport Authority was formed and eventually, the aviation activities of the City of Dothan were transferred to Napier Field. The airport facilities have since been progressively expanded to offer the citizens of southeastern Alabama a first-class aviation center. Dothan Regional Airport, located approximately 7 miles northwest of Dothan's central business district, is situated in Dale County and within the city limits of Dothan. The airport is well situated to meet the air transportation needs of Dale, Henry and Houston Counties, the City of Dothan and other nearby communities such as Abbeville and Headland, Enterprise, Ft. Rucker, Ozark, Midland City as well as our neighbors in northern Florida and southwestern Georgia. Dothan Regional Airport serves the air transportation needs of an area which includes southeastern Alabama, northern Florida, and southwestern Georgia. Dothan Regional Airport consists of 1200 acres of land, a 8500' all weather runway, a 5000' secondary runway, a 27, 000 square foot terminal building, buildings occupied by Pemco World Air Services, FlightSafety International, Airspeed Avaiation and Flightline of Dothan as well as numerous other buildings, firefighting equipment and all the modern navigational facilities needed to operate all types of aircraft in all types of weather in and out of the Dothan area. Dothan Regional Airport is owned and operated by the Dothan-Houston County Airport Authority, Inc The Authority consists of four members. One member is appointed by the City Commission, one member is appointed by the Houston County Commission, one member is jointly appointed by the City and the County and the fourth member is appointed by the Dale County Commission. Members are appointed for a term of four years. Terms run in such a manner that each year one member's term expires. Authority members serve without compensation. Currently serving on the Authority are Dick Bell, Chairman, Jonathan Stuckey, Charles Nailen and Hayne Hollis. Art Morris is the Airport Director. Dothan Regional Airport is self-supporting. No tax dollars go to operating Dothan Regional Airport. Many other airports receive city and county tax dollars to sustain their operations. Dothan Regional Airport generates its revenue from the users of the airport. There are approximately twenty businesses or agencies which conduct their activities at the airport. They pay rent, landing fees, and other charges for using the facility. The rates have been negotiated over the years to insure they are advantageous to the airport a Less
