Book excerpt: Flabob Airport in Riverside, California is rich in pioneering aviation history. Flabob received international notice when the a handful of excellent craftsmen and talented home builders made the airport their home. Names such as Stits, Stolp, Tallman, Marquart, Turner, and many more were responsible for exquisite aircraft replicas and successful experimental designs. Flabob is also a working airport looking toward the future by changing the lives of children through aviation, many of whom will achieve successful careers in the field. This is accomplished through the Tom Wathen Center which has been responsible for establishing the Flabob Preparatory High School, a Youth Opportunity Program, Rocketry Program, and the Flabob Associates which promote aviation education through use of the Flabob Express, a DC-3 aircraft. In conjunction with the Center's programs, the Spartan School of Aeronautics resides on the airport. EAA Chapter One was founded over 60 years ago and has been instrumental in hosting several events at Flabob as well as Young Eagle flights for youth. The Flabob Airport book contains a great many images to highlight the text.
