Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City was established in 1945 operates under the authority of the United States Coast Guard's Ninth District . It is situated on the southern end of Grand Traverse Bay in Northern Michigan at the Cherry Capital Airport in Traverse City, Michigan. Since 1995, Air Station Traverse City has controlled and manned Air Facilities throughout southern Lake Michigan. The area of operations includes all of Lake Michigan and Lake Superior and most of Lake Huron.
Originally established as a one-plane detachment to provide Search and Rescue service to the Great Lakes, Coast Guard Air Station Traverse City was commissioned in 1945. Over the years, the Air Station has grown from its original small complement to its present staff size of 20 officers and 100 enlisted personnel. In 1980, the air station increased its building space when a new maintenance and administrative hangar was completed, providing over 50,000 square feet of work space. Along with changes in size, the Air Station has experienced changes in the types of aircraft assigned over the years. The Consolidated PBY-5A "Catalina" gave way to the Grumman HU-16 "Albatross" seaplane and, eventually, the Dassault HU-25 Falcon. Likewise, the Sikorsky HO4S/3G helicopter gave way to the Sikorsky HH-52 "Seaguard" helicopter.
