As with most of the USA, this is a big travel weekend for the people of Greensboro. Above, we see a photo of the Piedmont Triad International Airport -- GSO in airport three-letter code. Located eight miles west of Greensboro, the surface address is 6415 Bryan Boulevard, Greensboro, NC 27409. Lindley Field was formally opened to passengers on May 28, 1927 and, flew its first passenger to New York in July. The field was named for the Lindley family who owned the land originally.
In November 2009, 68,954 passengers traveled through GSO; In November 2010, the number increased to 75,634.* It will be interesting to follow the statistics for this November.
This was the calm before the storm of travelers.
*Statistics here.
At airports, it's interesting how the decor attempts to match the gateway of the city/state. Our new addition has a lot of wood and scenic ocean views. Welcome to Maine... lots of wood and water.
