Sutter County Airport has a
diverse flying community. On any give day one can see crop dusters,
Cubs, Porterfields, Van's, Eagles, Cessna's and Pipers, just to name a
few.
Fly in, an see what we're all about!!!
Joe Borzelleri, the man behind the machine!
If it weren't for Joe's inspiration, we'd still be sitting around asking ourselves, "why doesn't somebody DO something?"
The
day it all began! There are about 40 more people not shown in this
photo. As soon as we voted to officially form the SBRAA, this hangar
was pounded by a torrential downpour, making further discussion almost
impossible!
We got it done, though. :)
Our first activity as an association was an airport BBQ with flying activities.
Here you can see a flour bag falling toward the target... the safest place to stand is on the bulls-eye! ;)
After the BBQ day was a movie night in AJ's hangar. Playing here is Flight of the Pheonix, starring Jimmy Stewart.
Here's our 2013 annual meeting, with the SBRAA board of directors in the Yuba City Council chambers.
Here's Joe receiving a "proclamation for general aviation" from Yuba City Mayor, John Buckland.
THE PROCLAMATION!!!
