Hancock Field is a former airport and military airfield about 2 miles (3.2 km) south-southeast of Santa Maria, California.

During World War II the United States Army Air Forces contracted with the Hancock Foundation College of Aeronautics to provide basic flight (level 1) instruction to aviation cadets beginning on 14 September 1940.

Known sub-bases and auxiliaries: Fairchild PT-19s were the primary trainer used.

Private flight training continued until the late 1950s when the airfield was closed.
