The
Delmar (State-Line) airport was used as a place to fly into, have lunch and a
little social meeting by amateur pilots.
In 1964 the International Women Pilot’s magazine had a mention of the
airport when the Washington DC Chapter flew in to have their business meeting.

On Saturday, November 7, the weather was with the 99 s and we did not
have to resort to rain dates. We had our Fly-in at Delmar State Line Airport at
Delmar, Md. Nancy Tier flew in in her Cessna 170 and brought along Alice Fuchs
and Mary Ann Shelley. Peggy Borek, chairman of the Eastern Pennsylvania
Chapter, flew in from Philadelphia in her Cessna 150. Eve Mcllveen, who was the
coordinator for air transportation to the fly-in, flew a Cherokee 140 in and
brought Lu Murray with her. Bea Wilder flew in with two guests with her Dottie
Allen and Louise Malone. Incidentally, Louise is a student pilot and no doubt a
potential 99 member for our chapter! Chapter chairman, Laura Zerener, flew her
freshly painted 140 in. A short business meeting was held and a lot of hangar
flying done. The wood at Delmar is very good and reasonably priced, too a
combination to take into consideration! At this Delmar meeting, it was decided
to resume the "Christmas Basket idea this year. As most of you know, this
basket is filled with donations and then given to some needy family. Nancy is
looking into getting the name of a needy family.?
