The Big Beaver Airport, formerly (IATA: 3BB), was a small suburban general aviation airport located at the corners of Big Beaver Road and John R Road in Troy, Michigan42°33′53″N 83°06′30″W / 42.564745°N 83.108268°W / 42.564745; -83.108268.

It was created in 1946 as an auxiliary airfield with a 2,400 ft (220 m²) gravel runway.

By the 1970s, the main airstrip was converted to asphalt and a 2,100 ft (200 m²) sod runway was added.

As she was never married and had no children, the city of Troy reached an agreement to let her operate the field until she died, at which time the city would acquire the property.

[1] The airfield has since been developed into various office buildings and small industrial centers.
