      Exploring an ABANDONED Airfield in California

      This airfield was an EPIC find! We can't give out the coordinates, but it was commissioned in 1942 by the Army Corp of Engineers. The airfield served as a flying academy. Flying training was performed with Fairchild PT-19s as the primary trainer; it also had several PT-17 Stearmans were also assigned. The base was inactivated years later. It later served as a local community college in the 1950's until the late 1970's .

      By 1981 it was used as a private airfield once again. until it permanently closed a few years later, now nearly 40 years later it sits abandoned next to farm land.

      Seeding California Rice by Plane in this Air Tractor Video!

      In this air tractor video we are finally seeding rice! The 2019 California rice crop is nearly planted. Watch the rice seed fall like rain from the agriculture planes. That's right! After all the tractor work this spring we are ready to seed our rice fields.

      This air tractor video features a fleet of G164 Super B Ag Cats from Williams Ag Service in Biggs, California. We'll see them in action over rice country!

      Thank you for watching! Thank you to all the crop duster pilots out there for doing such great work throughout the crop year. These pilots do a hard job in dangerous conditions. It's surprising, thank goodness, that an air tractor crash is so rare.

    • The Worlds Largest Airplane Landing in Oakland California ATC

      The Worlds Largest Airplane Landing in Oakland California ATC

      You can nit pick all day about "the world's Largest Airplane" If you feel really strongly about it, put it in the comment section.

      This Antonov An-225 Mriya Landed at the Oakland international airport (runway 30) on September 9th 2018 at about 4:30 PM

      I believe the aircraft was hired by the US Government (FEMA) to pick up relief supplies in Hawaii and deliver them to Guam for the Super Typhoon Mangkhut relief effort. It stopped in Oakland California for fuel on its flight from its base in Kiev.

      The Antonov An-225 Mriya (Ukrainian: Антонов Ан-225 Мрія, lit. 'dream' or 'inspiration', NATO reporting name: "Cossack") is a strategic airlift cargo aircraft that was designed by the Antonov Design Bureau in the Ukrainian SSR within the Soviet Union during the 1980s. It is powered by six turbofan engines and is the heaviest aircraft ever built, with a maximum takeoff weight of 640 tonnes (710 short tons; 630 long tons). It also has the largest wingspan of any aircraft in operational service. The single example built has the Ukrainian civil registration UR-82060. A second airframe with a slightly different configuration was partially built. Its construction was halted in 1994 because of lack of funding and interest, but revived briefly in 2009, bringing it to 60–70% completion] On 30 August 2016, Antonov agreed to complete the second airframe for Aerospace Industry Corporation of China (not to be confused with the Aviation Industry Corporation of China) as a prelude to AICC commencing series production.

      The Antonov An-225, initially developed for the task of transporting the Buran spaceplane, was an enlargement of the successful Antonov An-124. The first and only An-225 was completed in 1988. After successfully fulfilling its Soviet military missions, it was mothballed for eight years. It was then refurbished and re-introduced, and is in commercial operation with Antonov Airlines carrying oversized payloads. The airlifter holds the absolute world records for an airlifted single-item payload of 189,980 kilograms (418,830 pounds)] and an airlifted total payload of 253,820 kg (559,580 lb). It has also transported a payload of 247,000 kg (545,000 lb) on a commercial flight.
