The restaurant is CLOSED over a landlord "issue," but there’s nothing on the website or in the phone message saying they’re closed. Waisted my lunch flight.

Airport closed to GA sometimes due to military vintage planes practice; check NOTAM before arriving. Cafe has good service and friendly staff

Skydiving above the airfield. Do NOT fly over the top of the airfield. This is a really busy CalFire / Forest Service tanker base. Kindly refrain from blocking access to the runway doing checklist and run ups as homeowners facing losing their homes would appreciate the rapid response. Be prepared if you're at the hold short lines.
