Source: DFW article: opened 13 January 1974; Braniff hub 1974 to 1982; American hub from 11 June 1981. Throughput 22.6M (1979), 25.5M (1981), 37.1M (1985), ATA. The 1974 runway set was not read; the present longest is used. Capacity raised above the real throughput to carry the traffic the modelled airlines put through this airport (see docs/research/era4-sim-notes.md).
