Several months ago, Theresa Resendez contacted the Madera Municipal Airport to inquire about possibly touring part of it with her children, and with other friends of hers and their children.
Airport Manager, David Austin, welcomed her interest in the airport, and considered what could be done to foster their interest.
After contacting a local pilot-friend, Jim Shamp, the three of them arranged for a tour of Shamp’s hangar to work out the details of the tour. After corresponding several times to refine the details, a date was set for the mothers and their children.
