mooneygirl Posted November 29, 2009 Report Posted November 29, 2009 Short Notice I am sure, but please consider joining us for an impromptu Mooney Ambassador Event on Sunday December 6th. We will gather in the morning and park together. Please bring your Mooney Ambassador display tags if you have them, and if this is your first event, let me know!Here is some information on the event:Over 12 years ago, Santa Paula Airport began what is called the "First Sunday of the Month" or "First Sunday at the Airport". On the first Sunday of each month (except for weather and national holidays) aircraft of all ages and types are displayed and hangar doors are open with docents on hand to give free tours. News of the First Sunday at the Airport has spread by happy visitors and magazine and newspapaer articles. Pilots from other airports are flying their classic airplanes in to display and enjoy the day.Added features of the First Sunday are automobile clubs, airplane rides, The Young Eagles Program (call Neal at (805) 647-6994 for information), and The Gift Tent....Volunteers have been selling aviation related items for years as a fund raiser for the Aviation Museum of Santa Paula. The Gift Tent has great items at reasonable prices, all items are tax included and all proceeds are for the museum.http://www.airnav.com/airport/KSZPhttp://www.amszp.org/First SundayEvery First Sunday of the month, please come out to visit our Museum! Local aviation history comes alive on First Sundays. Our Chain of Hangars are open for you to explore from 10am until 3pm.Hangar Number One is the first in our chain of hangars. It tells the story of the founding of Santa Paula Airport in 1930, and that's just the beginning of the adventure. Each of these privately owned hangars in our Chain houses a variety of vintage aircraft and privately owned collections of various types of memorabilia from antique radios to racecars. Several other aircraft owners put their antique aircraft on static display and many vintage aircraft also fly in each month. Car Clubs also frequently grace our taxiways on First Sundays. Our Museum Tram is available to save you some steps between hangars. The Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 723 offers free airplane rides to kids ages 7-17. The Museum's Gift Hangar, located inside CP Aviation, offers a wonderful variety of toys and apparel for the airplane buffs of all ages. Every First Sunday is a little different, but our First Sunday Open House is always free to the public. Cancel if rain.Mission Statement"To educate the public of all ages in aviation and its history, both in general, and as it relates to Santa Paula, and to inspire, motivate and challenge the younger generation to carry on the dreams of our aviation pioneers.
