70 year

 Sunset airport has been around for 70 years and counting. The airport has helped Abq to grow in population. starting off as a very small airport for mail and little things. it only had 2 run ways. then went to about 8 then to 19 then to 30 i think. it had a restaurant and that got some mad attention. Many people moved to New Mexico because of this newly added airport. the airport at first was practically dirt. but soon was paithed and was made all pretty and what not. there were many different airports in Abq. and there still is. there are three one in kirkland air force base and the other on the west side of town, that one is more for small little jets.
