PRINCETON AIRPORT: 1969 - 1985
In 1969 Princeton Airport was
sold by Danny Todd to Metro Aire, which continued the airport operations.
The Van Dyke family was primary operator and started Princeton Airways, which
ran a commuter service during the late '70s through 1981. It operated
Islanders and Nomads. When the controllers went on strike, the operations
shut down; and the airport was put up for sale.
