Book Synopsis When Hollywood Landed at Chicago's Midway Airport by : Christopher Lynch
Download or read book When Hollywood Landed at Chicago's Midway Airport written by Christopher Lynch and published by History Press. This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Al Capone dove for the floor when he saw the flash of the camera, while his startled body guards drew their guns. The actress Miriam Hopkins ran screaming from the camera while Lyndon Johnson ran towards it. General Jimmy Doolittle called him a Son of a Bitch, while the Pope called him his friend. Bob Hope asked if he would escort Hope's wife to church, and John Barrymore asked if he would hide him from his mistress. Cary Grant demanded a shoe shine, Eleanor Roosevelt demanded an apology, and Harry Truman demanded a bourbon. Who was this guy? He was Mike Rotunno, and he was a photographer for one of Chicago's newspapers. Yet, he also photographed airplanes for the airlines, starting in the 1920's, the beginning of his 50 year career at Chicago's Midway airport. In that span he got to know everyone, great or small, and his story is like a cross between the movie The Terminal" and "Forrest Gump." He introduced movie stars to baseball players, Marilyn Monroe to a room full o."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study investigates implications of a projected growth of commercial air transport demand in the Chicago area for operations at the region's airports. About 95% of commercial air passenger and flight movements in Chicago currently take place at O'Hare International Airport. Serious airport runway and ground access congestion problems are likely to result if this degree of concentration of commercial traffic continues into the mid-1980's. This study considers the increased airport system capacity which could result if a significant portion of the growth of commercial air transport activity were to take place at Chicago Midway Airport in the late 1970's and mid-1980's.

Download or read book Midway Airport written by David E. Kent and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-25 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1903, Chicago fell in love with flying. Enterprising people opened airfields and designed and built aircraft, and aviators won big money at air meets. After World War I, aviation was a serious matter with explosive commercial potential. A transcontinental airmail service was established and became the impetus for the first airlines. Aspiring to be first in aviation, the City of Chicago considered each of its existing airfields to develop into its new, modern municipal airport. It chose none of them and instead decided on a square mile of property 10 miles southwest of the city as the location for what would soon become the "World's Busiest Airport."

Download or read book A History of Chicago's O'Hare Airport written by Michael Branigan and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011-10-20 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “Delves into O’Hare’s past and present, based on Branigan’s extensive research and his interviews with aviation professionals and enthusiasts” (Chicago Tribune). In 1942, a stretch of Illinois prairie that had served as a battleground and a railroad depot became the site of a major manufacturing plant, producing Douglas C-54 Skymasters for World War II. Less than twenty years later, that plot of land boasted the biggest and busiest airport in the world. Many of the millions who have since passed through it have likely only regarded it as a place between cities. But for people like Michael Branigan, who has spent years on its tarmac, they know that O’Hare is a city unto itself, with a fascinating history of gangsters, heroes, mayors, presidents, and pilots. Includes photos! “This book reads like no other in the aviation industry from the historical context. Mike is a prolific writer with a knack for telling a story in a way that people can easily relate and understand.” —TribLocal

Book Synopsis Lost Airports of Chicago by : Nicholas C. Selig
Download or read book Lost Airports of Chicago written by Nicholas C. Selig and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2013-02-12 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To book a ride on the "World's Shortest Airline" or learn aerial stunts from the redheaded widow of Lawrence Avenue, you've got to go through the airports buried beneath the housing developments and shopping malls of Chicagoland. Many of these airports sprang up after World War I, when training killed more pilots than combat, and the aviation pioneers who developed Chicago's flying fields played a critical role in getting the nation ready to dare the skies in World War II. Author Nick Selig has rolled wheels on his fair share of Chicago's landing strips but faces an entirely new challenge in touching down in places being swallowed by a city and forgotten by history.
