The History of Aviation in Rogue Valley

Bern Case, Airport Director
Bern Case, Airport Director

Welcome to the Rogue Valley International-Medford Airport, Oregon! We are very proud of this facility and with this web site. As you read this information we hope that you will be able to share in the history of our airport. The rich history of the Medford Airport is too precious to lose. The numerous people who have worked at the airport over the past 65 years have been dedicated members of the community and deserve to have their history and accomplishments perpetuated.

Use of the airport, of one kind or another, has involved all of the citizens of this valley. My thanks, as the current Airport Director, to Hattie B. Becker and all of those who have assisted her in compiling this fascinating and comprehensive work. It will be enjoyed by all of those who read it. May the airport in the next 65 years continue to serve the community, and enhance the quality of life for all of us! Bern E. Case, AAE
