Description

KAJO is a small pilot-controlled GA airport in a busy corridor here in SoCal.

The [Corona Airport Cafe](https://www.coronaairportcafe.com/) is at the east side of the field, south of the City tie-downs and transient parking.  It's a great stop for food, but they close early so get there before 2pm.

**Aircraft Spruce (West) is nearby.**  You can call them to deliver a purchase or shuttle you to/from the airport.

**Here are some tips from a local to prepare for flying into KAJO-Corona Muni:**
* There will be transiting traffic east-west along the 91 highway as well as north-south along the 15 highway.  There is also IFR training traffic coming in from the PDZ VOR headed toward midfield that will often go missed back to PDZ.  
* There are a few flight schools both on-field and at neighboring airports, so expect pattern traffic with student pilots.
* Helicopters will generally land on the south grass on the south side of the airport.  Auto-gyros are often in the area as well.  Be on the constant watch for both pattern and transiting helicopter traffic.
* Straight-in approaches to 25/7 not recommended due to heavy traffic.  Common pattern entry is 45 degree to the downwind (both left pattern for RWY25 and right pattern for RWY7) at 2000 AGL--descending to pattern alt as you enter.  
* Pattern should be flown tight, again for traffic concerns.  Stay to the north of the 91 (east/west hwy to the south) and make base turn for 25 before Lincoln Ave.  Avoid overflying houses on base-to-final.  There are powerlines to stay above on RWY25 final.  RWY7 has no PAPI.
* Coyotes do wander onto the runway both in daylight and at night.  Be prepared to go around.
* Speak up on 122.7!  Do not assume you are alone.  Also, don't rely 100% on the "fishfinder", ADSB is wonky in this area and you will be surprised.  SEE AND AVOID.

I picked Corona Muni as my home with my first aircraft purchase. It’s busy both on the ground and in the air. It’s Pilot-Controlled and you get a mix of characters on the radio. The cafe is great. Aircraft Spruce is nearby. There are services on the field and many A&Ps if you have an AOG event here.

Great little airport tucked in next to the Prado Dam. Just bring bug juice if you are hanging out for a bit. :)
