    KPDK Dekalb Peachtree Airport

    DeKalb–Peachtree Airport (IATA: PDK, ICAO: KPDK, FAA LID: PDK), also known as Peachtree–DeKalb Airport, is a county-owned, public-use airport in DeKalb County, Georgia, United States. The airport is located in the city of Chamblee, just northeast of Atlanta. It operates 24 hours per day, although it is uncontrolled from 11:00 PM EST to 6:30 AM EST (Monday through Friday) or 7:00 AM EST (Saturday through Sunday). The airport has many hangars and is the second-busiest in Georgia. There is one helipad which is used by the four major network-affiliated television stations (WAGA, WANF, WSB and WXIA). PDK is also the home of AutoPILOT Magazine, an advertorial publication covering all things aviation-related. Nearly every building at the airport are handcrafted, with a few not done because the information from Google Earth was just to blurry and couldn't be determined what it is.  Three open hangars, Atlantic Aviation, Signature Aviation. and Aero Center EPPS Aviation. 

    History
    The area currently used by  PDK was a Army training camp during World War I for the 82nd Division.  In 1940 the land was converted into a Naval Air Station with operations beginning in March 1941, a few months before the United States entered into World War II.  The NAS later moved to Marietta and was called Dobbins Air  Reserve Base. NAS was eventually closed by base realignment and closure (BRAC).  PDK was converted from military to civilian use from 1957 to 1959. Commercial shuttle service began in 2017.  Ultimate Air Shuttle began operating commercial flights between PDK and Lunken Field in Cincinnati.  Service was expanded to connect PDK with Charlotte Douglas International Airport in 2019. However, service was suspended in 2020 in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
