Oceanside Airport Assoc. Celebrates 100 Years of Aviation History

So-Cal pilots take note: There's a flapjack breakfast on Saturday morning.

Oceanside Airport is celebrating its birthday this Saturday, January 31st. They recently held off an attack by local politicians and developers, which each of us could face one day with rising land values. So, in celebration, the local EAA chapter asks that you fly or drive in for food, friends and fun over a pancake breakfast on Saturday from 9am to 11am.

Aside from the mouth-watering food, several events will keep you busy, including live entertainment featuring Jazz & Swing music from Oceanside High School Band, a static airplane display and a paper airplane contest with prizes for kids.

Pilots who fly in and are current Oceanside Airport Association (OAA) members eat for free (with an optional donation). Interested airport supporters are welcome to the $5 breakfast.

Caution:  Oceanside airport is 2.5 miles south of the Camp Pendleton restricted airspace. The OAA doesn't want to hear about any surface to air "practice" shots, so please check NOTAMS before flying.
