Dominguez Centennial Aviation Day!

Simply Mumtaz Events, Inc. was honored to produce the Dominguez Centennial Aviation Day commemorating 100 years since the 1910 Air Meet that was held on Dominguez grounds and was a major catalyst for Aviation internationally and Southern California. If you don't know about the Dominguez Rancho Adobe Museum - please check them out. It's a California Historical Landmark and a non-profit org. They need your support to continue to bring California History to our community.

OK, so into the good stuff! Here's all that we had to celebrate. It was really a fun filled day with lots of great activities.

Let's start off with the Air Show! We had several different acts all day do passes over the event grounds! Robinson Helicopter, Stearman BiPlane, Bell 47 Helicopter, Van Nuys Condor Squadron with T6s, Golden Stars Sky Divers, P-51, RedTails, USAF Texan II and the Good Year Blimp! A special shout out goes to Carter Clark and Cliff Heathcoat for helping us! We could not have done this event with out both of you. THANK YOU!

Next, we had some amazing folks coming out to showcase their planes and automobiles! Special Thanks to the Western Museum of Flight and the Model T & A Clubs of Long Beach. Check out these amazing shots! We had models, a Bleriot replica, 1970's BD-5, 1940's Radioplane RP-5 Drone and much more!



We also had a lot of kids activities and fun food! Kogi BBQ, World Famous Tommy Burger, Funnel Cakes, Snow Cones, Pizza, Robins BBQ, and Lemonade... Ferris Wheel, Coloring Station, Soapbox Derby Display and Sid the Science Kid from PBS!

In addition to all of the fun activities - we have to say thanks to all of our event sponsors and elected officials that came out to support the event! In particular to our keynote speakers - Bob Gilliland, Legendary Aerospace Test Pilot & California State Librarian Stacey Aldrich.

Also to Clear Channel for helping us advertise the event to the local community - seen below off the 91 Freeway, exiting to the Dominguez Rancho. Plus, all of our community / organization partners - thank you!
