ABOUT THE AIRPORT
| Sonoma Valley Airport was started by Waldemar "Wally" Reichelt not long after Wally was discharged from the US Army at the end of WWII. |

The airport was much smaller than it is today but many of the original structures, such as these seen the the photo at left, still stand. |

In this view looking southwest, taken in the 1960's, Runway 17/35 is in the same location it is today. Looking like a taxiway to 17/35, the short "east/west" was actually "Runway 25/7" used when the prevailing westerly winds kicked-up. |
