San Carlos Airport History
San Carlos has been home to an airport since 1917. The original airport terminal was located at the corner of Old County Road and Terminal Way. In 1940 operations were moved near to Brittan and Industrial Roads. The airport was relocated to its present site on the east side of 101 in 1948. San Mateo County purchased the property in 1964. Today the airport is completely funded with user and business fees and receives no money from the County’s General Fund.
