Haleiwa Airfield
The date of construction of the Haleiwa airfield has not been determined. The earliest depiction of the field which has been located was a 1933 aerial photo, which depicted a group of B-6A biplanes on a grass field.
Haleiwa Field on the northwest coast of Oahu, 30-miles from Honolulu, was originally (prewar) a center for private flying. This was not a regular runway (originally used as an emergency landing field,) just something comparable to an old country road rather than an airstrip.
