“CCA would like to encourage students from Travis Air Force Base, Beale Air Force Base and the surrounding areas to apply. We simply couldn’t do a show without their tremendous military and community support; this is a way for the organization to give back to those regions,” continued Brewer.

Established in 2004, the California Capital Airshow has become one of the largest and highly-respected airshows in the nation.
