Historical airline service

[edit]

Duncan received scheduled commercial airline flights between 1954 and 1973. Central Airlines began service in 1954 using Douglas DC-3s on flights to Dallas and Fort Worth, as well as to Oklahoma City, with a stop in Lawton.

In 1967 Central merged into the original Frontier Airlines, which used Convair 580 aircraft on its flights until ending service in 1972. Mid-Continent Airlines, a small commuter airline at the time, provided flights to Dallas, Oklahoma City, and Altus, Oklahoma for a time in 1973. Since then Duncan has not seen regular air service.[2]

Halliburton Field covers 560 acres (230 ha) at an elevation of 1,113 feet (339 m). Its single runway, 17/35, is 6,650 x 100 ft (2,027 x 30 m) concrete.[1]
