About Kallang Airport
Wikipedia ↗Kallang Airport was Singapore's first purpose-built civil international airport. Officially opened on 12 June 1937 and closed on 21 August 1955, it was located along the eastern edge of the Kallang Basin and spanned the modern planning areas of Kallang and Geylang. Constructed on 300 acres (120 ha) of reclaimed mangrove swampland, the airport featured facilities for seaplanes and was once regarded as "the finest airport in the British Empire", with Amelia Earhart calling it "an aviation miracle of the East". Though its official opening was in 1937, the first aircraft had landed at the airport in 1935.
