Seacue, One 11 got it - 2 hours before you - maybe next time !
Yes, it's Washington Hoover.
The Hoover part - Washington's first commercial airport opened in 1926.
The Washington part, across the road opened in 1927.
In the 30's both merged and developed strealined Art Deco buildings -including a swiming pool !
Its life was limited - sod runways - no expansion possibilities etc.
By 1949 it was gone - .
All yours seacue or one 11- if you don't have anything presently
