May usage uptick at Yelland Field driven by USDA helicopter, flight instruction and gliders
Summary
The advisory board reviewed a May usage report showing higher activity: packet totals list private planes (1,249), commercial (1,038), medical flights (354) and government operations (6,355); board members noted an expected decline in glider activity this year due to no available tow plane.
Tim Parish presented the May usage report and said airport activity rose in May because of a USDA helicopter visit, increased flight instruction and glider traffic. He added that glider numbers are expected to be down this year because there is no tow plane available.
The meeting packet included month-by-month enplanement and operations tables. The packet lists summary counts labeled in the materials: private planes 1,249; commercial 1,038; medical 354; government 6,355. The board did not take action on these counts at the meeting but accepted the usage report as information only.
