.
The Quad City International Airport is the third-busiest commercial airport in Illinois – Chicago's O'Hare

in Moline and his famous plane, the Spirit of St. Louis
on the Gugenheim tour, a cross-country commercial aviation promotion tour. In 1929, Phoebe Omlie
set an altitude record above the airport in a Velie Monocoupe, the only plane ever manufactured in Moline, which still hangs in the passenger terminal. In 1947, the Metropolitan Airport Authority of Rock Island County was formed after seven townships voted to establish it. In 1957, the first count of enplaning and deplaning passengers was made with a total of 59,701 recorded. The airport underwent major remodeling in 1961 and 1968, adding everything from baggage claim to a restaurant and passenger boarding areas. The current airport terminal was completed in 1985, after studies showed that an addition to the 1954 structure would prove more costly than building an entirely new terminal. The shift to the new $11 million terminal created many new opportunities for expansion of airline facilities. Between 1979 and 1986, the number of airlines increased from two to seven.
Major carriers flying mainline jets to the Quad Cities have included America West Airlines
, American Airlines
, Allegiant Air
, Northwest Airlines
, Ozark Air Lines

B turboprop aircraft. Carriers like Northwest Airlink
have almost completely replaced their turboprop
equipment with newer regional jets. In fact, every commercial flight out of Quad City International is now served by jet aircraft
. In 2001, the terminal underwent a major renovation and expansion that included two new concourses, a larger baggage claim area, new restaurants, and gift shops. The completion of the project doubled the size of the passenger terminal.
In 2004, Northwest Airlines
announced major expansion plans for Quad City International with their feeder carrier, Northwest Airlink
. United Airlines

History
Franing Field, the site of the present Quad City International Airport, was picked as an ideal flying field, which consisted of 120 acres (49 ha) of level, grassy land free of obstacles. The airport made headlines right at the start, chosen as a control point for the first coast-to-coast flight in the fall of 1919. On August 18, 1927, an estimated 10,000 people came to welcome Charles LindberghCharles Lindbergh
