The base was initially used for refitting civil airliners for military service before they were ferried across the Atlantic to Europe and North Africa.

NAS Fort Lauderdale later became the main training base for Naval Aviators flying the Grumman TBF and TBM Avenger for the U.S. Navy and U.S. Marine Corps aboard aircraft carriers and from expeditionary airfields ashore.
