Join us in Truckee for one of the final Fly Safe Seminars of the year. Local pilots and A&P/ IA's Doug Lee and Bjorn Anderson will showcase how working on your own aircraft can make you a better pilot. Live, inside a hangar these mechanics will showcase what you may not know you can and cannot do on your aircraft. They will touch on preventative maintenance from a pilot perspective and what the FAA allows and doesn't allow.

Welcome from the General Manager

Since 1958, the Truckee Tahoe Airport District has been an integral part of the community of Truckee and North Lake Tahoe.  Located at 5,900 feet, in the heart of the Sierra Nevada Mountain range, we are connected by more than a runway!  With a dedicated team and volunteers, we are highly aligned with our mission.   

The Truckee Tahoe Airport aims to provide safe, high-quality services and facilities, reduce impact on our airport neighbors and the environment, and invest in opportunities that increase community safety and provide sustained benefit to the entire Truckee Tahoe region.
