DFW Airport is the world's third-busiest airport based on operations and tenth-busiest airport based on passengers.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.dfwairport.com/visitor/P1_009559.php |title=dfwairport.com - DFW Fast Facts |work=dfwairport.com |access-date=March 3, 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150712183001/https://www.dfwairport.com/visitor/P1_009559.php |archive-date=July 12, 2015}}</ref> Prior to the construction of the DFW Airport, the city was served by [[Greater Southwest International Airport]], which was located just to the south of the new airport. Originally named Amon Carter Field after the publisher of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram, Greater Southwest opened in 1953 and operated as the primary airport for Fort Worth until 1974. It was then abandoned until the terminal was torn down in 1980. The site of the former airport is now a mixed-use development straddled by [[Texas State Highway 183]] and [[Texas State Highway 360|360]]. One small section of runway remains north of Highway 183, and serves as the only reminder that a major commercial airport once occupied the site. Fort Worth is home to these four airports within city limits: * [[Fort Worth Alliance Airport]] * [[Fort Worth Meacham International Airport]] * [[Fort Worth Spinks Airport]] * [[Naval Air Station Joint Reserve Base Fort Worth]] Summary: Please note that all contributions to Christianpedia may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors.
