Palwaukee Municipal is now Chicago Executive
Palwaukee Municipal Airport has a new name.

Palwaukee Municipal Airport has a new name. The Wheeling, Ill. airport is now called Chicago Executive. Palwaukee started in 1925 and grew into “the most important reliever airport in the country,” according to the new chairman of the board, Kevin Dohm. A United Airlines pilot, Dohm pointed out that the airport is only eight miles from O’Hare and 20 miles from Chicago’s business district. “It’s location, location, location,” he said, “and we have it.” The name was changed, he said, “because we need to tell everyone who we are and where we are.”
