First Operations Open At Port Isabel Naval Air Station
Late Monday five FOF-5 Panther Jets from Kingsville NAS landed at Port Isabel Naval Auxiliary Air Station marking the base opening for refueling and rearming training. Planes from Corpus Christi and other bases fly Gulf gunnery runs to Padre Island then refuel here for continued missions. Reopened with 8000 foot runway and night landings, the field will host daily training flights.
