Los Angeles International Airport (widely known just by its code, LAX) is one of the world's busiest international airports, ranking 6th in terms of passenger numbers. It houses hubs for American Airlines, Alaska Airlines, Delta Airlines, Southwest Airlines, United Airlines and US Airways, and it accommodates the operations of a wide variety of other US airlines and international airlines from Asia, Europe, Latin and South America, and the Pacific region.All of us see aeroplanes from the ground - parked at airports, taking off, landing, climbing, descending, or cruising high above. But rarely do we see aeroplanes looking down on them from above. Such images are therefore rather unusual and strangely compelling. This book takes look at a selection of the aeroplanes that visit LAX, all of them seen from a rather unique and captivating aerial viewpoint.The book has 144 pages and includes stunning fully-captioned full-plate images (one per page) of the airlines and aircraft that regularly fly into LAX.
A visual tour of the airlines and aircraft that transited the Los Angeles International Airport LAX during the post deregulation decade of the 1980s.
This book presents readers with a technical tool-kit to understand the economics of airlines. It starts by covering the key language and glossary of the air travel business, which is necessary for graduates or first-time employees in aviation to understand the content of conversations, meetings, presentations and internal aviation communications. It then breaks down the complexity of the demand side of the air travel business. The book then analyses revenue over two distinct time horizons, specifically the short and medium runs, recognising the fact that airlines operate to a fixed number of seats over a short horizon because of the way that they schedule services in advance of departure. By combining revenue and costs, the book then analyses airline profit, with a focus on the short run and medium run decision variables that maximise airline profit. The remainder of the book analyses various important topics in air transport economics, including competition in airline markets, key rules, regulations and taxes that affect the return on capital in aviation, the way that airlines form relationships, and the economics of the market for oil and jet fuel, among others.

Growth on the flatlands along the western extents of Imperial Highway in the 1920s was once measured in beans, barley, and jackrabbits. After 2000, the site that became Los Angeles International Airport would be measured by the more than 60 million passengers and nearly two million tons of cargo passing through it each year. One of the world's busiest airports grew out of Mines Field and expanded quickly in the 1930s with the exploits of Charles Lindbergh and Amelia Earhart, Howard Hughes and Will Rogers, Curtiss and Martin, and Boeing and Lockheed. After World War II, this large portion of coastal Los Angeles between El Segundo and Marina del Rey became the main airport for Greater Los Angeles. With the advent of the jet age in the town of the jet set, LAX became a nexus of international travel and a symbol of sophistication as the "Gateway to the World," a cutting-edge center for the overlapping spheres of aviation, business, politics, and entertainment.
