Howard Air Force Base west of the canal's Pacific entrance in 1999, the
US military and its civilian contractors have been back a few times to
support National Guard maneuvers in Panama and possibly for other
purposes. However, the old runways have not been getting a lot of use.
Now, however, there is a concession to develop Howard as an air freight hub, airport for international charter flights, duty-free import/export zone and industrial area. A Singaporean aircraft maintenance and repair company is the first major business to start operations there and there have already been a few passenger flights. Here we see a COPA Airlines jet parked on the tarmac at Howard, just the other day. Photo by Allan Hawkins Also
