Buzzwick Airport formerly known as Wickenheiser Airport, originated in 1956 by Cletus Wickenheiser. As a WW2 P-51 Mustang Fighter Pilot, LT. Wickenheiser served in the European Theater during WW2 escorting Allied bombing missions.

A lifelong resident of Carleton, Michigan, Cletus returned to Monroe County after the war, working as a contractor in the home construction business while raising 10 children. He was a quiet hero of America's greatest generation.

The Airport's name combines Mr. Wickenheiser's wartime call sign "Wick," and the current owner's company name Buzzard: Buzzwick.

The Noble family purchased the Airport in 2011, adding hangars, flight school office and facilities.
