On May 26. 1943. the US Army Corps of Engineers commenced construction on a satellite training airfield to support US Navy F4U Corsair (nicknamed the “whistling death”) fighter pilot training and was designated OLF (Out Lying Field) NAF02044.  During WWII it also served as a base for Atlantic Coast Ocean Surveillance Operations flown by the civil air patrol. After WWII, the US Government turned over control of  the airfield to the City of Fernandina on July 9, 1947 and since that time it has served the Amelia Island Community as a General Aviation Airport.
