The airport is 7 nautical miles east of Sacramento International Airport and only two miles west of McClellan Airport.

There is a fixed-base operator on the field offering fuel and parking services as well as a lounge, restrooms, and a weather briefing station.[3][4][6]

For the 12-month period ending October 31, 2023, the airport had 20,000 aircraft operations, an average of 55 per day. All of it was general aviation. For the same time period, there were 139 aircraft based on the field: 136 single-engine and 3 multi-engine airplanes.[3][5]
