Mmmm.... Pancakes...... 🤤
Imagine starting your first Saturday of the month with a fresh breeze and the hum of aircraft at the Placerville Airport. Our "Quietly Famous" Pancake Breakfast is the ultimate local tradition where neighbors, families, and aviators gather in our Chapter Hangar for a morning of delicious fun.
From April through October, we turn the airport into the best neighborhood hangout in the county.
Beyond the breakfast, the hangar is alive with activity. You can jump into various games of skill to test your coordination or explore rotating educational displays from our local community partners. Whether you're watching the planes taxi by or learning something new about the world of flight, there is always something happening on the flight line.
