The article says the last jet passenger flights were by Hughes in 1971, but Aeroamerica operated there starting in 1974 - I don't know when its last flight was. See http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Aeroamerica

Change page name/title?

King County officially calls this airport King County International Airport-Boeing Field. Should the page title/name and URL reflect that? Wikipedia changes the names of stadiums when they get new sponsors. (Yes, locals still short-hand it as "Boeing Field," but that's not the official name anymore and hasn't been for a while.) 24.19.231.11 (talk) 00:08, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:COMMONNAME, the commonly recognizable name in media should be used. In this case, "Boeing Field" is the most appropriate article title, as The Seattle Times and non-local outlets refer to it by that name first and most often. Sounder Bruce 00:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
