<p class="blog-para">President franklin d. Roosevelt approved preliminary funds for site development of the greater Cincinnati airport on February 11, 1942. This was part of the united states army air corps program to establish training facilities during world war ii.

Boone county officials offered a suitable site on the provision that Kenton county paid the acquisition cost. In October 1942, congress provided $2 million to build four runways.</p>
