History
The airport was formerly Maryville Memorial Airport and was built following World War II. It was renamed in 2003. It has been operated by the Rankin family for several decades. The family also operates the Rankin Airport in the 102 River bottoms on the east side of Maryville. It derives its codes from Kevin Rankin who filled out the application while in high school in the early 1970s.[citation needed]
