Alex's Flying Trips

April 12, 2015: Watts Woodland (O41)



I have never been to this airport, so, this one Sunday afternoon, I decided to land to check it out. This is a privately owned airport but open to public. During my visit, except for some rabbits crossing the taxiways, no one's around. Not a single plane was even parked at the ramp.

There's a golf course north of the airport(-that's the picture above with a decorative jet plane), and supposedly has a restaurant. I decided to check it out next time, and flew to Vacaville Nut Tree instead. The wind was calm and I entered right downwind runway 18 for landing; straight out runway 18 for takeoff. There's no weather info here, so I used the nearby Yolo County AWOS at 125.775.

The runways, taxiways, and ramp were in good condition; didn't check out the tie down conditions at the transient area.
Per Airnav, the price for selfserve avgas here was competitive; but I didn't get a chance to check it out.
