WELCOME!
The Central Valley Aviation Association (CVAA) was formed by Central California Pilots in 1968. From the beginning, CVAA has been a staunch advocate for this gem of an airport, making sure others including governmental agencies, developers and groups seeking to curtail or close Chandler know that they have an ardent foe. Secondly, CVAA has and continues to advocate for and protect the rights of the aviators and businesses based at the airport and all Central Valley aviators who utilize Fresno Chandler Executive Airport.
One of the unique features of Chandler is the fact that it is the last remaining airport whose terminal building, related support buildings and many of its hangers were constructed in 1936-1937 as part of the W.P.A. (Works Progress Administration) in the Art-Deco architecture of the period. The terminal and related facilities were recently restored to their Art-Deco period grandeur. Central Valley Aviation Association continues to support Fresno Chandler Executive Airport “Where the Past Supports the Future.”
