INFO: Known to many Bay Area pilots Sonoma Skypark is a Challenging Airstrip nestled in the Heart of the Sonoma Valley. 2,490ft in legnth and 40ft in width. Windshear and mechanical turbulance is a very common as well as obstacles on both sides of the field making for a challenging approach and landing. Sonoma Skypark covers an area of 33 acres at an elevation of 20 feet above mean sea level. For the 12-month period ending August 31, 2010, the airport had 15,000 general aviation aircraft operations, an average of 41 per day. At that time there were 62 aircraft based at this airport: 93% single-engine, 3% multi-engine, 2% helicopter, and 2% glider. Open to public use for light aircraft, the airfield offers various services, such as computer-based and in-flight training and self-serve 100LL aviation fuel.
HISTORY: The airport opened on January 3, 1965 in Vineburg, Sonoma, California. It is 28.9 nmi (53.5 km) north of San Francisco city center. The hangars shelter many antique and classic aircraft, including a 1947 Luscombe 8E (Silvaire), a 1941 Interstate S-1A Cadet, a Briegleb BG 7 glider, and a 1946 Aeronca Champion. The airfield hosts a monthly Young Eagles Program, launched by the EAA in 1992 to give young people (from 8 to 17) an opportunity to fly in a general aviation airplane.
