Region was once dotted with small airports by Jim McAllister
For many years Haverhill had two airfields. The Haverhill (Dutton) Airport dated to the late 1920s and was owned in the 1960s and 1970s by Howard Dutton, a top-shelf flight instructor and stunt pilot. Bateman said Dutton "could land a plane on a specially equipped truck moving at 55 miles an hour, and then take off at the same speed." Tragically, Dutton died in a crash in 1977 while flying upside down.
