Originally called <b>Trumbull Airport</b> after Governor <a href="/wiki/Jonathan_Trumbull" title="Jonathan Trumbull">Jonathan Trumbull</a>, the airport was taken over by the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army_Air_Corps" title="United States Army Air Corps">United States Army Air Corps</a> in August 1941 as a <a href="/wiki/First_Air_Force" title="First Air Force">First Air Force</a> group training base, although the runways were still grass. In 1942, the Army constructed a base and hard-surfaced runways and designated the airport as <b>Groton Army Airfield</b>. Through all of 1943, a total of 10 squadrons of <a href="/wiki/Republic_P-47_Thunderbolt" title="Republic P-47 Thunderbolt">P-47 Thunderbolt</a> fighter groups trained at the field, with the last unit departing for overseas combat in January 1944. </p><p>In January 1944, the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Army_Air_Forces" title="United States Army Air Forces">USAAF</a> turned the airfield to the <a href="/wiki/United_States_Navy" title="United States Navy">United States Navy</a>. The commissioning of Groton as a Naval Airfield occurred on February 1, 1944, as an auxiliary of <a href="/wiki/Quonset_Point" title="Quonset Point">Quonset Point</a>. Initially, Groton hosted various individual squadrons. Later, entire CAGs of three or four squadrons formed up at the base. The CAGs attached here during the war included CAG 83, 10, 92, 152, and 4, with their <a href="/wiki/Grumman_F6F_Hellcat" title="Grumman F6F Hellcat">F6Fs</a>, <a href="/wiki/Vought_F4U_Corsair" title="Vought F4U Corsair">F4Us</a>, <a href="/wiki/Curtiss_SB2C_Helldiver" title="Curtiss SB2C Helldiver">SB2Cs</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Grumman_TBF_Avenger" title="Grumman TBF Avenger">TBMs</a>.

The station had one airplane assigned, a GH Howard. </p><p>In March 1944, station personnel consisted of 87 officers and 678 enlisted men with barracks for 114 officers and 1,091 men. The peak number of aircraft reached 114 in March 1945. Groton had three concrete runways: two 4,000 ft and one of 5,000 ft. In July 1946, the Navy returned the airport to the <a href="/wiki/Connecticut" title="Connecticut">State of Connecticut</a>. </p><p>In 1980, the name of the airport changed to Groton–New London Airport. Today, the airport is one of two state-owned airports with commercial air carrier service. The funds necessary to operate Groton–New London Airport come from the Connecticut State Transportation Fund. Likewise, revenue derived from the airport is returned to the Transportation Fund. </p><p>The airport is integrated into the statewide transportation plan, as well as the National Airport System Plan. There were 80,319 aircraft operations during 1999 at Groton–New London Airport which included military, general aviation and commercial flights. The terminal building was last renovated in 1997, with a new roof, HVAC system, ADA compliance, new carpeting and other improvements.<sup id="cite_ref-auto_3-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-auto-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The terminal is mostly a single floor structure, with a second floor that houses offices in one section.

In 2012, faced with declining demand for services, the two proposed merging their Groton operations as a joint venture called Mystic Jet Center. In January 2013, the U.S Department of Justice's Antitrust Division announced that it would not interfere with the merger, citing sufficient competition from nearby airports.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup><sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Climate">Climate</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Groton%E2%80%93New_London_Airport&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Climate"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div> <table class="wikitable mw-collapsible" style="width:auto;
