Founded in 1911 at nearly the dawn of flight, Robertson Airport is Connecticut’s oldest airfield. It began as an airfield consisting of little more than a meadow used by novice pilots in the early 20th century. A plaque on the property commemorates the first flight taken from Plainville on May 18, 1911, by 22-year-old air pioneer Nels J. Nelson. In 1941, Stamford “Stan” Robertson purchased the 36 acres of land for $5,000. Over the next 30 years, he increased the acreage of the airfield to 70 acres, refined landing strips, and built permanent hangar space for aircraft.
