Yeager International Airport first opened its doors in 1947. In 1985 it was named after General Chuck Yeager, the first pilot to break the sound barrier in the Bell X-1.

Today, Yeager Airport serves American, Delta, Spirit, and United Airlines. With only 6302 feet of runway at an elevation of 982 feet on a flattened mountain, the airport is regarded as one of the world's most dangerous airports.
