Friends of Nampa Airport

A community group for Nampa Municipal Airport.

Friends of Nampa Airport is an independent volunteer group of pilots, hangar tenants, airport users, and community members that keeps people informed about Nampa Municipal Airport (KMAN), holds regular public meetings, and helps identify and support what the airport needs — in cooperation with airport management, the Airport Commission, and AOPA’s Airport Support Network, but not as a city or AOPA body.

Nampa Municipal is our community airport. You do not need to be a pilot to take part. If you fly here, keep an airplane here, work on the field, or simply care about this part of Nampa, you are welcome.

Announcements

We’re getting started

Friends of Nampa Airport is just getting organized. Our aim is simple: share clear information about the airport, meet a few times a year, and find practical ways to help.

This group is independent. It is not a City of Nampa board or committee, and it is not an AOPA chapter. We hope to work in a friendly way with airport management, the Airport Commission, and others already active at KMAN.

Watch this page and join the email list for the first meeting date, and for updates as we get going.

What’s happening at KMAN

A short look at recent, publicly documented items (as of November 2026):

The city welcomed a new airport superintendent on October 5, 2026. (Idaho Press, October 8, 2026)
On September 8, 2026, City Council approved annexing about seven acres and rezoning nearby city-owned land for future hangar and airport-facility expansion. (Boise Builds, rezone; annexation)
