The Sutter County
Airport is located on approximately 170 acres of land, just east of Garden
Highway, near the intersection of Garden Highway and Franklin Road. This
airport serves the Yuba-Sutter and general aviation communities by hosting
general aviation operations: aircraft hangars, aircraft maintenance and repair
facilities, and extensive privately owned crop dusting operations.
Private ownership and
operation of aircraft (General Aviation) benefits communities in a variety of
ways, including business and personal transportation, recreation and education,
agricultural production and management, health care and air ambulance
services, fire supression, law enforcement, and disaster relief.
Since it's creation in
1947, the Sutter County Airport has served the Yuba-Sutter communities in many
of these capacities, and SBRAA leaders and members look forward to a bright
future for the airport under the care and guidance of this non-profit
organization.
