Someone visiting Tinian today would have a hard time imagining that, for 9 months, starting in December 1944,
Tinian was the largest and busiest airbase in the world.

Here is a view of Tinian from the north, facing south.
North Field is in the foreground. West Field is to the south, about 2/3 of the way up the picture.
The living quarters for the flight crews are in between.
"Goat Island" is in the distance.
