Numerous aircraft will be on display and will range from classic aircraft of the 1930's, modern homebuilt aircraft, and military trainers to current civilian models.

Also on display will be 15 vintage Rolls Royce automobiles, as well as a variety of hot-rods and other enthusiast cars. Food will be available for purchase and convenient parking is available at the airport.

A representative from the Cal Aggie Flying Farmers will be there for those who might be interested in learning to fly. The club was formed in 1947 (the year the airport opened) and is open to the public. The club operates 10 aircraft for instruction and rental.
