The FAA has staffed a tower at the EAA convention since the 1960s. FAA controllers compete to work the event which is known among controllers as the “Super Bowl” of air traffic control. More than 10,000 airplanes arrive for the event.

Aerial Archives Murals on Display at East Bay Regional Park District’s Big Break Visitor Center July 11, 2012 June 22, 2013 / By Herb Lingl / Aerial Photographs, Aerial Photography Two large aerial photography murals of the Sacramento River Delta are part of a new exhibit at the Big Break Visitor Center in Oakley, California. The exhibit, designed by Nick Cavagnaro and Doyle Wegner of the East Bay Regional Park District with assistance of Frank Binney and Associates, provides insight into the Delta’s geography, history and uses. Three fourths of Delta lands are used for agricultural purposes as illustrated in this aerial photograph. Because of the Delta’s fertile peat soils and controlled marine influence, it produces a yield per acre that is almost 50% higher than California’s average.
