1981 Hilo Airport

1981 - The present-day terminal facilities at Hilo came at a time when major airlines began to draw down service from US Mainland cities. In this photo from 1981, a United Airlines McDonnell Douglas DC-10 can be seen parked at gate 5. An Aloha Airlines Boeing 737-200 is parked at an angle at gate 7 so that it may power away from the parking spot on its own.

 

Photo was retrieved from the Hawaiʻi State Department of Transportation Archives.
