ATL's Centennial

3/20/2025

Comments

 
Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport turns 100 this year and I've been adding loads of new material to various pages. At this point, I'm filling in gaps in the already detailed history, and this month's additions look pretty random when seen together.
​A sample of recently added material:
​A fantastic aerial view taken during a stop by the Ford national air tour on October 13, 1929.
Picture
Atlanta's new night lighting shown in this 1931 postcard
Picture
A visit from Amelia Earhart in 1934.
Picture
Circa 1945 aerial view.
Picture
Eastern Air Lines demonstrates their new "mobile lounges" in 1971.
Picture
A vertigo-inducing view of the escalator descending from the main ATL terminal into the underground transportation mall, circa 1981.

Much, much more to follow!
