2009 Wings & Wheels Display Day

After at least 6 months of heavy planning and countless efforts by Petaluma Area Pilots Association members, families, and friends the first annual Classic Wings & Wheels show took place July 18th. We had more than 50 classic planes and more than 50 classic cars for folks to get up close with and talk to owners and crew. Various county and community agencies also had information booths at the event, and pretty much all state, local, and federal services aircraft and vehicles made appearances, too. We had good attendence, which will likely grow with future shows and all-in-all it was a fun, successful event. Admission was free, with concession stands and donation stands available -- proceeds to benefit the PAPA Scholarship Fund. More info about PAPA can be found at http://www.papapetaluma.org.

I've many more photos than what you see here in much higher resolutions. So if you need a particular photo for any reason please contact me, Steve Klett, at flyphotoguy@earthlink.net or 707/241-5646.

  • CHP, Sheriff, Coast Guard, CDF, and Reach helicopters all made appearances at the show -- CHP/Reach/CDF/Sheriff helicopters landed and allowed the public to get up close and view the aircraft and talk with the crews. The Coast Guard ship did one heckuva fly by later in the day.

  • The S-2 had wheels down to land but we couldn't fit it into the display -- wingspan was too wide to accommodate. Next year!  Wish it did a fly by before going back home.
