Yeah, My estimation is that Hilo had a sleepy little "airport" until WWII came along and then the military arrived with the Seabees and built something real to the happy benefit of whoever operated the site and the land around it.

I don't know for a fact but if I had to guess I would guess that the airport land (like Honolulu's) was owned by the Hawaiian People who then got quietly relieved of their asset.

Later the local powers that owned and profited from the location were more interested in keeping their cash cow going than to do anything sensible like plan for the future.

Take a look at Hilo. The place is a mess.

Assume the best and ask questions.
