    Description

    WLW is home to Nancy's Airport Cafe.  I think more truckers than pilots eat at Nancy's, but it is right on the field and open 24x7.  Self serve fuel.  CHP helicopters are a frequent visitor so be sure your tie down is secure.  Be alert for crop dusters in season as they usual do not be use the radio.  Also, there is a fair amount of flight school traffic and many of the students are not native english speakers.

    • After Landing - Willows Airport

      After Landing - Willows Airport

      After Landing - Willows Airport
      March 2021

      Unless one has specific business at Willows, most NorCal pilots land at Willows(WLW) airport for their $100 hamburger at Nancy's Airport Cafe.

      This is not an instructional video on landing at Willows; there's a lot of those already in the internet. I'm just sharing my experience landing at this airport.

      Because of the current pandemic, I was wondering how Nancy's was doing. So, as the winter weather took a break and went CAVU, I took the opportunity to check it out, and maybe get my own $100 hamburger.

      Good to see Nancy's Airport Cafe was open despite the pandemic. During this visit, Nancy's had a patio for outdoor dining. It also served in-door dining with limited capacity. My cheeseburger and fries did hit the spot for me. I didn't order any of its famous pies; I don't want to recalculate my weight and balance --- but maybe next time.

      And as long as Nancy's open, that's good enough excuse to fly Willows.

      Took an hour flight up the valley to meetup with some friends and have lunch at Nancy's Cafe. Not unlike many airport cafe's the food was really good. The airport was very busy and we had a near miss with another aircraft at about 12 miles south of the airport. Got nice video of the approaching airplane. Although no video for the trip back home it was interesting. Had my first radio failure and had to sqwak 7600 while on VFR flight following.
