In 1933, John W. Greene was issued a commercial pilot's license, the second Black man to qualify in the United States. In 1941, he opened the Columbia Air Center along the Patuxent River at Croom, Maryland. This was the first Black-owned and operated airport and airfield in Prince George's County [1941 to 1956]. Today the field is owned by the Maryland National Capital Park and Planning Commission and is part of the Department of Parks and Recreation. A historical marker and exhibit on Columbia Air Center are included in the Chesapeake Bay Critical Need Driving Tour. The Museum in College Park offers an exhibit commemorating the pioneering efforts of John W. Greene as a mechanic, pilot, and teacher of aviation and displays Black aviation's role in the development of Prince George's County.
