Located just 10 miles from downtown LA, LAX serves millions of travelers world wide every year. LAX just keeps getting bigger and bigger as they build about 10 new gates that plan to be opened in just a few months. Look up because you may see Air Force One!

Expert from the book, "The mile-square Los Angeles Municipal Airport (L), 57.1 m., with five huge hangars and a five story administration building, is used extensively for pilot training and plane testing. The two airplane manufacturing plates adjoining, the North American Aviation, Inc. and the Northrup Company, each employ more than 1,000 workers."
