This theatre should have an AKA Shannon’s Airline Auto Theatre. That was the original name when it first opened.

I worked at the Airline as a projectionist back in the early 80’s. At that time Mike Make the owner operated the Drive-In as a single screen. The Drive-In was built by Mike’s parents who retired and turned the drive-in over to their son.
Mr. Make operated the theater up in till the early 90’s when he sold the drive-in to a new owner. I do not know that owners name, but one interesting transformation that occured, was he planted X-mas trees on the outer are of the drive-in and sold X-mas trees there in the winter.
In the mid to late 90’s Teicher Theaters out of Troy, OH. bought the drive-in. Teicher twined the drive-in sometime in the 2002 season. His company currently operates the drive-in weekly with first run films and the community patronizes the drive-in very heavly.
