Donna Speidel now focused solely on Sightline
For nearly 30 years Donna Speidel has guided Speidel Construction, Incorporated as one of the best airfield marking contractors in the industry. On Tuesday, November 14, 2017, Vicky Pope acquired Speidel’s contracting company now named Speidel Airfield Markings (SAM). SAM will be based in Murfreesboro, Tennessee, but will retain offices in Culpeper, Virginia. All of Speidel’s skilled personnel have been retained in the transition.
For Donna Speidel, the next chapter in her career began over ten years ago when she created Sightline to research and write the Airfield Marking Handbook. Family owned and operated with her son, Mike Speidel, Sightline is the aviation industry leader in the promotion of best practices for airfield markings. Sightline continues to advocate higher standards for airfield safety through training, quality control, marking assessments, and other related services.
2022 Charlotte Douglas International Airport Report of Achievement
Giving back to the community is central to what Charlotte Douglas International Airport and its operator, the City of Charlotte Aviation Department, is about, and last year was no different.
Throughout 2022, while recovering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we continued our efforts to have a positive impact on the Charlotte community. Of particular note, we spent the year sharing stories of how Connections Don't Just Happen at the Terminal - from creating homeownership and employment opportunities to supporting economic growth through small-business development and offering outreach programs to help residents understand the Airport better.
This whitepaper highlights the construction projects, initiatives, programs and events that validate Charlotte Douglas as a premier airport.
