Boeing Tower Today
Boeing Field, officially King County
International Airport (KBFI), is a two-
runway airport owned and run by King
County, Washington, USA. In
promotional literature, the airport is
frequently referred to as KCIA, but this
is not the airport identifier. The airport
has some passenger service, but is mostly
used by general aviation and cargo. It is
named after the founder of the Boeing
Company, William E. Boeing.
Being south of the city, it is named
Boeing Field because of the Boeing
Airplane Company’s proximity and
because Boeing’s Pacific Air Transport
(later United Airlines ) used it for regular
airmail service. It was Seattle’s principle
passenger airport until the construction
of Seattle- Tacoma International Airport
in the 1940’s.
The airport serves small commercial passenger airlines, cargo carriers, private aircraft
owners, helicopters, corporate jets, and military and other aircraft. It is also home to the
Boeing Company’s 737 aircraft flight-test program, along with the other Boeing
operations.
