Local female aviator Alexandria Riedinger will be part of the festivities at the Oakdale Airport this weekend, as Airport Appreciation Day touches down on Saturday, Oct. 10 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. This open house is free to the public and will include free plane rides for kids between the ages of 8 to 17, custom cars, food, vendors, kiddie rides, and much more. The Oakdale Airport is at 8195 Laughlin Road in Oakdale. Riedinger’s passion for flying soared to a whole new level when she met Clark, the infamous aerobatic and airline pilot at the AOPA (Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association) Regional Fly-in at Salinas Airport.
