WEST COAST CUB FLY-IN | LOMPOC AIRPORT | THROUGH SUNDAY | FREE
Calling all airplane enthusiasts!! The 30th Annual West Coast Cub Fly-In lands in Lompoc this weekend. The event brings planes, pilots and aviation fans in from around the country.
The piper cub, a small tandem aircraft, which was built between the years 1937-1947, will be the focus of the event.
This aircraft was used for flight training during WWII and is known for its bright yellow color.
The West Coast Fly-In has become one of the most popular piper cub events in the U.S.
Last year the event had 85 planes in attendance, and they are hoping to have over 100 this year.
