歷史
編輯佛雷斯諾錢德勒行政機場是加利福尼亞州歷史最悠久的機場之一。
機場的歷史可被追溯到第一次世界大戰結束時，當時佛雷斯諾區域內尚未有航空設施。意識到這個問題後，威爾伯·F·錢德勒（Wilber F. Chandler）和埃德娜·M·戈布爾（Edna M. Goble）夫婦決定在作物收穫後允許飛行員在他們的農田上起降。飛行員稱呼此處為「錢德勒起降場」（Chandler Field）。[4][5]
History
編輯Fresno Chandler Executive Airport is one of the oldest operational airports in California.
The history of the airport stretches back to the end of World War I. At the time, there were no facilities for aviation in the Fresno area. Recognizing the problem, husband and wife Wilber F. Chandler and Edna Maria Goble allowed pilots to take off and land in their fields once the crops were harvested.[4] Pilots called the site "Chandler Field."
1923年，當地的飛行員組織了「世界上最偉大的空中馬戲團」以為一座永久性的新機場籌措資金。馬戲團在當年的感恩節下午進行了表演，項目包括競速、跳傘和雙翼機翼上行走。當地商會亦試圖通過發行兩項獨立債券以購買一處可供建設機場的地產。但這兩項措施都沒有成效。[5]
1929年，錢德勒夫婦決定施以援手，捐出了他們的農場中的100英畝（40公頃；0.40平方公里）土地以建設一座公共機場。1929年11月初，機場正式開放使用。[5]
該機場隨後進行了一項耗資達50,000美元的改進工程，包括一條長2500英尺的塗油跑道與一座機庫。[5]
Efforts to raise funds a permanent aviation field in the city of Fresno started in the early 1920s. One notable fundraiser was the "World's Greatest Aerial Circus" held at the Chandler farm on the afternoon of Thanksgiving Day 1923 featuring races, parachute jumps and dual wing walking.
In 1929, the Chandler family donated 100 acres of their land to the city to be used as a public-use airfield. The site was named after the family and opened as Chandler Air Field in November 1929.[6] The airport was used by both civil and commercial aviation.
On March 23, 1930, Charles Lindbergh and his wife landed briefly at the airport and were greeted by a crowd of 20,000.[4]
Less than a decade after it was open, it was already clear that the small runway would not be able to accommodate the increasingly larger airplanes used by the commercial airlines. Chandler's runway was extended to 4,000 feet in 1938 as part of a Works Project Administration project.[4]
In early 1941, shortly before the United States officially entered World War II, the United States Army Air Corps Southwest Air District took over the airport while nearby Hammer Field was being built. Hammer Field opened in June 1942 and all military activity moved there.
After the end of the war, Hammer Field was inactivated by the Army Air Forces, and in 1946 the War Assets Administration reallocated the property to the city of Fresno. The airport opened in 1948 as the Fresno Air Terminal (FAT) (it has since been renamed the Fresno Yosemite International Airport). Trans World Airlines (TWA) and United Airlines flights to San Francisco/Oakland and Los Angeles moved from Chandler Field to the newly opened airport.
After the move, Chandler Airport was designated as a reliever airport for Fresno Yosemite International Airport and has been marketed as an executive airport located closer to Downtown Fresno.
Facilities and aircraft
編輯Fresno Chandler Executive Airport covers 200英畝（81公頃） at an elevation of 279英尺（85公尺） above mean sea level. It has one asphalt paved runway designated 12/30 that is 3,630乘75英尺（1,106乘23公尺）.[1]
For the 12-month period ending May 9, 2017 the airport had 24,885 general aviation aircraft operations, an average of 68 per day. At that time there were 124 aircraft based at this airport: 83% single-engine, 7% ultralight, 6% multi-engine, 4% helicopter, and 1% jet.[1]
