Current 27-10-1960: The river is moved for the planes to arrive. A NATO grant of 40 million for the development of Værnes Airport in Stjørdal. All the way from Holland you had to get a dredge barge that couldmove 600,000 cubic meters of sand from the fjord bottom to the runway. In giant pipes, water and sand are sucked and blown over a kilometer. Photo Sverre A. Børretzen: Aktuell / NTB ***Photo not image processed***
