Selma Municipal Airport, also known as Selma Selfield Airport, was an airport located east-northeast of Selma, Alabama.HistoryThe field was always closely tied to operations at Craig and served as an auxiliary field for a number of years during World War II with the initiation of Undergraduate Pilot Training for the Air Force through the 1960s. It became a joint use facility in the early 1950s with Delta Air Lines operating DC-3 service and later Southern Airways. Selma Municipal Airport was closed in 1978 when the City of Selma relocated the municipal airport to the much larger Craig Air Force Base, which was closed by the Air Force after the Vietnam War.Today the former airport is used for storage of a large number of house trailers by FEMA; which remain in the area after being repossessed from Hurricane Katrina victims.
