8 Fun Facts About Danbury Airport
I once have the pleasure of flying out of Danbury with my Uncle Chris. He took me to lunch in Cape Cod or Martha’s Vineyard, I can’t remember but it was fun. When you fly in one of those small planes, it’s like sitting in a Buick that took flight.
Special thanks to Mike Allen, Michael Safranek (Airport Manager) and Dan May (Head of the Tower) for their cooperation and information. Thank you to Kat Dunne for submitting pictures for the article.
P.S. Kat or "Katastrophe" has had a busy month on I-95. She submitted the photos for this story and was the subject of an article written by Large Dave about her encounter with Hollywood star Cuba Gooding Jr.
