History

Crows Landing was relocated 4 miles (6.4 km) west to be established on the Southern Pacific Railroad tracks in 1887.

There's a small airport west of town that was used as an auxiliary landing site for training World War II pilots from Naval Air Station Alameda, and later for NASA's experimental aircraft from the Ames Research Center in Mountain View. It was transferred to Stanislaus County in 2000.[3]

In 2011, a report from KCRA-TV has is that NASA Crows Landing Airport, after closure, will be demolished into a film studio, thanks to Mare Island Studios.
