History

The first flight to the site of the airport was operated on May 10, 1935 but the area was officially designated only on July 21, 1953.

In 1980, the administration of the airport was taken over by Infraero and on June 8, 2001 the name was officially changed to include a tribute to the aviator César Bombonato.

In 2005, the airport terminal was extensively renewed and enlarged. In 2007, the runway was extended.

gollark: I ran a private server for a small group of people on another Discord server (interweb friends, not real world ones) and that worked fine.
gollark: Maybe you should install new friends.
gollark: that👏emoji👏use
gollark: Probably. But I don't think you can tell which is which unless you hardcode the positions or something.
gollark: Anyway, I haven't implemented *targeted* GPS spoofing yet, because it's not very useful and I don't control an entire dimension of GPS servers, but it might be interesting to experiment with.
