Santa Paula Airport was originally established in 1927 when a local rancher purchased an airplane and based it at the small dirt airstrip on his ranch. Today Santa Paula Airport is known as “The Antique Airplane Capital of the World”, and is home to an array of experimental and antique craft. Many famous pilots have landed here, including Charles Lindbergh, Chuck Yeager, Roscoe Turner, and Pancho Barnes. The first Sunday of each month is open to the public.
