CAAPSO was founded in 2017 as a partnership between parties interested in securing the future of Reid-Hillview airport. CAAPSO is a not-for-profit, tax-deductible 501(c)(3) (EIN 35-2606912) corporate organization and a chapter of the California Pilots Association (CAL Pilots). CAAPSO started through the joint collaboration of a diversified group of founding members, including:
– Local FBOs (Fixed Base Operators: Fuel, Training, Maintenance, Rentals)
– San Jose State University – Aviation Department
– RHV tenants (Pilots/Aircraft Owners/Flying Clubs)
– Aviation education interested parties from the local community
