History
During the late 1930s the City of Chico acquired approximately 160 acres (0.6 km²) of land five miles (8 km) north of what was then the City limits and constructed an airport hangar and runway. Until 1941, this original facility was leased to a fixed-base operator. During 1941 the City acquired an additional 1,000 acres (4 km²) for the purpose of leasing the Airport to the United States Government.
During World War II, the Airport was leased to the U.S. Government on a "Dollar a Year Lease" for the purpose of constructing and operating an United States Army Air Forces Basic Training Air Field. Chico Army Airfield was under the command of the 10th Army Air Force Base Unit, AAF West Coast Training Center, Fourth Air Force. Chico Army Airfield was a major training site for thousands of pilots, both as a primary training base flying BT-13s, and for advanced gunnery and multi-engine training in P-38, P-39, P-63, B-17, B-29s.
Chico AAF also had five auxiliary landing fields:
- Orland Auxiliary Field No. 1
- Kirkwood Auxiliary Field No. 2
- Vina Auxiliary Field No. 3
- Campbell Auxiliary Field No. 4
- Oroville Auxiliary Field No. 5
After the war, the City negotiated an agreement by which the airport property was returned to the City, together with the bulk of improvements which had been constructed by the Army.
A Titan-I ICBM was located on the north side of the airport from 1962–1965, part of the Beale AFB's 851st Strategic Missile Squadron system of several ICBMs centered around Marysville. Its formal designation was Beale 851-C. It is now dismantled.
Previous air carriers include American Eagle, Hughes Air West and Reno Air Express.
