In 1926, the Los Angeles City Council and the Chamber of Commerce recognized the need for the city to have its own airport to tap into the fledgling, but quickly growing, aviation industry. Several locations were considered, but the final choice was a {{convert|640|acre|sqmi ha|0|adj=on}} field in the southern part of Westchester. The location had been promoted by real estate agent William W. Mines, and Mines Field as it was known had already been selected to host the 1928 National Air Races. On August 13, 1928 the city leased the land and the newly formed Department of Airports began converting the fields, once used to grow wheat, barley, and lima beans, into dirt landing strips.{{Cite report |url=https://lawamediastorage.blob.core.windows.net/lawa-media-files/media-files/lawa-web/lawa-our-lax/draft-eiseir/draft-eis-eir_appendix_i_lr.pdf |title=LAX Master Plan EIS/EIR - Appendix I.

The building still stands at the airport, remaining in active use and listed on the National Register of Historic Places.{{NRISref|version=2008a|refnum=92000959}} Over the next year, the airport started to come together: the dirt runway was replaced with an all-weather surface and more hangars, a restaurant, and a control tower were built. On June 7, 1930, the facility was dedicated and renamed Los Angeles Municipal Airport.

The airport was used by private pilots and flying schools, but the city’s vision was that Los Angeles would become the main passenger hub for the area. However, the airport failed to entice any carriers away from the established Burbank Airport or the Grand Central Airport in Glendale.

World War II put a pause on any further development of the airport for passenger use. Before the United States entered the war, the aviation manufacturers located around the airport were busy providing aircraft for the Allied powers, while the flying schools found themselves in high demand. In January 1942, the military assumed control of the airport, stationing fighter planes there, and building naval gun batteries in the ocean dunes to the west.

Meanwhile, airport managers published a master plan for the land and, in early 1943, convinced voters to back a $12.5 million bond for airport improvements. With a plan and funding in place, the airlines were finally convinced to make the move.

After the end of the War, four temporary terminals were quickly erected on the north side of the airport and, on December 9, 1946, American Airlines, Trans World Airlines (TWA), United Airlines, Southwest Airways, and Western Airlines began passenger operations at the airport, with Pan American Airways (Pan Am) joining the next month. The airport was renamed Los Angeles International Airport in 1949.{{Cite web |title=Search history |url=http://www.lawa.org/lax/LAXSearchHistory.cfm |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050924004528/http://lawa.org/lax/LAXSearchHistory.cfm |archive-date=September 24, 2005 |access-date=March 21, 2008 |website=Los Angeles World Airports}}

The temporary terminals remained in place for 15 years but quickly became inadequate, especially as air travel entered the "jet age" and other cities invested in modern facilities. Airport leaders once again convinced voters to back a $59 million bond on June 5, 1956.

The current layout of the passenger facilities was established in 1958 with a plan to build a series of terminals and parking facilities, arranged in the shape of the letter U, in the central portion of the property. The original plan called for the terminal buildings to be connected at the center of the property by a huge steel-and-glass dome. The dome was never built, but a smaller Theme Building, constructed in the central area, became a focal point for people coming to the airport.

The first of the new passenger buildings, Terminals 7 and 8, were opened for United Airlines on June 25, 1961, following opening festivities that lasted several days.{{Cite magazine |last=Hawkes |first=Russell |date=July 3, 1961 |title=Work Advances on Los Angeles Jet Airport |url=https://archive.aviationweek.com/issue/19610703 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220417195345/https://archive.aviationweek.com/issue/19610703 |archive-date=April 17, 2022 |access-date=September 15, 2021 |magazine=Aviation Week |pages=40–41}}{{Cite web |title=Terminal area map from about 1961 |url=https://www.flickr.com/photos/n303wr/3467050218/sizes/o |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220620054502/https://www.flickr.com/photos/n303wr/3467050218/sizes/o |archive-date=June 20, 2022 |access-date=August 13, 2013 |publisher=Flickr.com}} Terminals 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 opened later that same year.

There was a major expansion of the airport in the early 1980s, ahead of the 1984 Summer Olympic Games. In November 1983, a second-level roadway was added,{{Cite news |last=Levin |first=Jay |date=April 22, 1984 |title=LAX being molded into an easy airport |work=Daily Breeze (Torrance) |page=A1 |via=NewsBank |agency=Copley News Service}} Terminal 1 opened in January 1984{{Cite news |last=Larsen |first=Carl |date=January 19, 1984 |title=PSA sees benefits in new L.A. terminal |work=The San Diego Union-Tribune |page=F1}} and the Tom Bradley International Terminal opened in June 1984.{{Cite news |last=Levin |first=Jay |date=April 18, 1984 |title=LAX: How they tamed the monster - Revamping just in time for Olympics |work=The San Diego Union-Tribune |page=A1}} The original terminals also received expansions and updates in the 1980s.

Since 2008, the airport has been undergoing another major expansion. All of the terminals are being refurbished, and the Tom Bradley International Terminal was substantially rebuilt, with a West Gates satellite concourse added.{{Cite web |title=Midfield Satellite Concourse North Project |url=https://www.lawa.org/en/lawa-msc-north |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190703225555/https://www.lawa.org/en/lawa-msc-north |archive-date=July 3, 2019 |access-date=July 3, 2019 |website=Los Angeles World Airports}} Outside of the terminal area, the LAX West Intermodal Transportation Facility with 4,300 parking spaces opened in 2021, replacing the former Lot C.{{Cite web |last=Forgione |first=Mary |date=2017-11-29 |title=LAX is removing half the spaces in its cheapest parking lot.

Ultra low-cost carriers say project costs have made operations at LAX unsustainable under their low-fare model, with fees hitting around $50 per departing passenger. As a result, Allegiant Air is shutting its LAX crew base and cutting several routes.{{Cite web |date=2025-03-09 |title=Allegiant Stands Up to LAX for Its High Fees, Shuts Its Base – Cranky Flier |url=https://crankyflier.com/2025/03/10/allegiant-stands-up-to-lax-for-its-high-fees-shuts-its-base/ |access-date=2025-04-17 |language=en-US}}

Before the 1930s, US airports used a two-letter abbreviation and "LA" served as the designation for Los Angeles Airport.{{Cite web |last=Hernández |first=Caitlin |date=2022-07-19 |title=LAX Explained: Your Guide To Navigating The West Coast's Most Infuriating Airport |url=https://laist.com/news/transportation/lax-explained-airport-travel-guide-los-angeles |access-date=2023-07-18 |website=LAist |language=en}} With rapid growth in the aviation industry, in 1947, the identifiers were expanded to three letters, and "LA" received an extra letter to become "LAX". The "X" does not have any specific meaning.{{Cite web |title=LAX Frequently Asked Questions |url=https://www.flylax.com/lax-frequently-asked-questions-faq |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210117192833/https://www.flylax.com/lax-frequently-asked-questions-faq |archive-date=January 17, 2021 |access-date=January 24, 2021 |website=Los Angeles World Airports}} "LAX" is also used for the Port of Los Angeles in San Pedro and by Amtrak for Union Station in Downtown Los Angeles.

Runways 24R/06L and 24L/06R (designated the North Airfield Complex) are north of the airport terminals, while runways 25R/07L and 25L/07R (designated the South Airfield Complex) are south of the airport terminals.

LAX is located with the Pacific Ocean to the west and residential communities on all other sides. Since 1972, Los Angeles World Airports has adopted a "Preferential Runway Use Policy" to minimize noise levels in the communities closest to LAX.

Typically, the loudest operations at an airport are from departing aircraft, with engines operating at high power, so during daytime hours (6:30am to midnight), LAX prefers to operate under the "Westerly Operations" air traffic pattern, named for the prevailing west winds. Under "Westerly Operations", departing aircraft take off to the west, over the ocean, and arriving aircraft approach from the east. To reduce noise to areas north and south of the airport, LAX prefers to use the "inboard" runways (06R/24L and 07L/25R) for departures, closest to the central terminal area and further from residential areas, and the "outboard" runways for arrivals. Historically, over 90% of flights have used the "inboard" departures and "outboard" arrivals scheme.

During night-time hours, when there are fewer aircraft operations and residential areas tend to be more noise sensitive, additional changes are made to reduce noise. Between 10pm and 7am, air traffic controllers try to use the "outboard" runways as little as possible and, between midnight and 6:30am, the air traffic pattern shifts to "Over-Ocean Operations", under which departing aircraft continue to take off to the west, but arriving aircraft also approach from the west, over the ocean.

There are times when the Over-Ocean and Westerly operations are not possible, particularly when the winds originate from the east, typically during inclement weather and when Santa Ana winds occur. In those cases, the airport shifts to the non-preferred "Easterly Operations" air traffic pattern, under which departing aircraft take off to the east, and arriving aircraft approach from the west.{{Cite report |url=https://www.lawa.org/uploadedFiles/LAX/noise/PDF/Final%20LAX%20Preferential%20Runway%20Use%20Policy%20Report%20041114_Web.pdf |title=Los Angeles International Airport - Preferential Runway Use Policy |last=Environmental Services Division, Noise Management Section |date=April 11, 2014 |publisher=Los Angeles World Airports |access-date=August 15, 2017 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170816021514/https://www.lawa.org/uploadedFiles/LAX/noise/PDF/Final%20LAX%20Preferential%20Runway%20Use%20Policy%20Report%20041114_Web.pdf |archive-date=August 16, 2017 |url-status=dead}}

The South Airfield Complex tends to see more operations than the North, because there are a larger number of passenger gates and air cargo operations areas on the south side of the airport grounds. In 2007, the southernmost runway (07R/25L) was moved {{convert|55|ft|m}} to the south to accommodate a new central taxiway.{{Cite news |last=Oldham, Jennifer |date=November 28, 2006 |title=North runways at LAX may be altered |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2006-nov-28-me-airport28-story.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151018073307/http://articles.latimes.com/2006/nov/28/local/me-airport28 |archive-date=October 18, 2015 |access-date=August 16, 2017 |work=Los Angeles Times}}{{Cite news |last=Weikel, Dan |date=April 30, 2013 |title=Council OKs moving LAX runway as part of $4.76-billion upgrade |url=https://www.latimes.com/local/la-xpm-2013-apr-30-la-me-lax-runway-20130501-story.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20151026061525/http://articles.latimes.com/2013/apr/30/local/la-me-lax-runway-20130501 |archive-date=October 26, 2015 |access-date=August 16, 2017 |work=Los Angeles Times}} Runways in the North Airfield Complex are separated by {{convert|700|ft}}.{{Cite news |last=Oldham, Jennifer |date=June 5, 2007 |title=Pilots seek greater separation between LAX north runways |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2007-jun-05-me-pilots5-story.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230309084544/https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-2007-jun-05-me-pilots5-story.html |archive-date=March 9, 2023 |access-date=August 16, 2017 |work=Los Angeles Times}} There were plans to increase the separation by {{convert|260|ft}}, which would have allowed a central taxiway between runways to have been built, but faced opposition from residents living north of LAX.{{Cite news |last=Weikel, Dan |date=December 3, 2012 |title=LAX runway separation plan advances, over groups' objections |url=https://www.latimes.com/local/la-xpm-2012-dec-03-la-me-airport-runway-20121203-story.html |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170823064238/http://articles.latimes.com/2012/dec/03/local/la-me-airport-runway-20121203 |archive-date=August 23, 2017 |access-date=August 16, 2017 |work=Los Angeles Times}} These plans were scrapped in 2016, in favor of lifting a gate cap at the airport and building a new park on the airport's north side.{{Cite news |last=Weikel |first=Dan |date=August 17, 2016 |title=A $652-million project to move LAX runway will be scrapped after lawsuit |url=https://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-airport-settlement-20160817-snap-story.html |work=Los Angeles Times}}

The distinctive Theme Building in the Googie style was built in 1961 and resembles a flying saucer that has landed on its four legs. A restaurant with a sweeping view of the airport is suspended beneath two arches that form the legs. The Los Angeles City Council designated the building a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument in 1992.

In the secure area of the airport, tunnels or above-ground connectors link all the terminals except for the regional terminal.

LAX Shuttle route A operates in a counter-clockwise loop around the Central Terminal Area, providing frequent service for connecting passengers. However, connecting passengers who use these shuttles must leave and then later re-enter security.

{{Anchor|LAX Shuttle}}

LAX operates several shuttle routes to connect passengers and employees around the airport area:{{Cite web |title=Traffic and Ground Transportation |url=https://www.flylax.com/lax-traffic-and-ground-transportation |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191029153114/https://www.flylax.com/lax-traffic-and-ground-transportation |archive-date=October 29, 2019 |access-date=2021-10-25 |website=Los Angeles World Airports}}

Route A – Terminal Connector operates in a counter-clockwise loop around the Central Terminal Area, providing frequent service for connecting passengers. However, connecting passengers who use these shuttles must leave and then later re-enter security.

Route C – City Bus Center connects the Central Terminal Area and the LAX City Bus Center which is served by transit buses from Beach Cities Transit, Culver CityBus, Los Angeles Metro, Santa Monica Big Blue Bus and Torrance Transit. Buses on this route also serve the Employee South Lot.

Route E – Economy Parking connects the Central Terminal Area and the West Intermodal Transportation Facility, the airport's economy parking garage.

Route M – Metro Connector connects the Central Terminal Area with the Aviation/LAX station on the Metro C Line and the Aviation/Century station on the C Line and K Line. Buses also stop at the "Remote Rental Car Depot", a bus stop served by shuttles to smaller rental car companies.

Route X – LAX Employee Lots connects the Central Terminal Area and the Employee Parking Lots. The route has three service patterns: the East Lot route only stops at Terminals 1, 2, 3, and B; the West Lot route only stops at Terminals 4, 5, 6, and 7; and the South Lot route stops at all terminals and also stops at the City Bus Center as Route C.

{{main|LAX City Bus Center}}

Most transit buses operate from the LAX City Bus Center, which is located away from the Central Terminal Area on 96th Street, east of Sepulveda Boulevard.

LAX Shuttle route C offers free connections between the LAX City Bus Center and the Central Terminal Area.

The LAX City Bus Center is served by Beach Cities Transit line 109 to Redondo Beach, Culver CityBus lines 6 and Rapid 6 to Culver City and UCLA, Los Angeles Metro Bus lines {{LA Metro route|102}} to South Gate, {{LA Metro route|111}} to Norwalk, {{LA Metro route|117}} to Downey and {{LA Metro route|232}} to Long Beach, Santa Monica Big Blue Bus lines 3 and Rapid 3 to Santa Monica, and Torrance Transit line 8 to Torrance. During the overnight hours, Los Angeles Metro line {{LA Metro route|40}} offers service to Downtown Los Angeles.

The LAX City Bus Center will eventually be replaced by the LAX/Metro Transit Center station, which will be connected to the rest of LAX by the Automated People Mover system.

There is also a bus stop at Sepulveda Boulevard and Century Boulevard that is a {{Convert|1/4|mi|adj=on}} walk away from Terminals 1 and 7/8 that is served by LADOT Commuter Express line {{LADOT route|574}} to Sylmar and Encino. This bus stop is also served by some of the same routes as the LAX City Bus Center: Los Angeles Metro lines 40 (overnight only), 117 and 232 and Torrance Transit line 8.

{{Main|FlyAway (bus)}}

The FlyAway bus is a nonstop motorcoach/shuttle service run by LAWA, which provides scheduled service between LAX and Union Station in Downtown LA or the FlyAway terminal at the Van Nuys Airport in the San Fernando Valley.{{Cite web |title=LAX FlyAway® Bus |url=https://www.flylax.com/en/flyaway-bus |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190617190022/https://www.flylax.com/en/flyaway-bus |archive-date=June 17, 2019 |access-date=June 12, 2019 |website=LAX Official Site |publisher=Los Angeles World Airports}}

FlyAway buses stop at every LAX terminal in a counter-clockwise direction, starting at terminal 1. The service hours vary based on the line, with most leaving on or near the top of the hour. Buses use the regional system of high-occupancy vehicle lanes and high-occupancy toll lanes (Metro ExpressLanes) to expedite their trips.

This building used to house some charter flights. It sat empty for 10 years until it was re-opened as a learning center for LAX.

The center contains information on the history of aviation, several pictures of the airport, as well as aircraft scale models, flight attendant uniforms, and general airline memorabilia such as playing cards, china, magazines, signs, and a TWA gate information sign.

The museum's library contains an extensive collection of rare items such as aircraft manufacturer company newsletters/magazines, technical manuals for both military and civilian aircraft, industry magazines dating back to World War II and before, historic photographs and other invaluable references on aircraft operation and manufacturing.Parker, Dana T.

The museum has on display "The Spirit of Seventy-Six," a DC-3 that flew in commercial airline service, before serving as a corporate aircraft for Union 76 Oil Company for 32 years. The plane was built in the Douglas Aircraft Company plant in Santa Monica in January 1941, which was a major producer of both commercial and military aircraft.Parker, Dana T.

• On January 23, 1939, the sole prototype Douglas 7B twin-engine attack bomber, designed and built as a company project, suffered a loss of the vertical fin and rudder during a demonstration flight over Mines Field, flat spun into the parking lot of North American Aviation, and burned. Another source states that the test pilot, in an attempt to impress the Gallic passenger, attempted a snap roll at low altitude with one engine feathered, resulting in a fatal spin.Huston, John W., Major General, USAF, Ret., editor, "American Airpower Comes of Age: General Henry H. "Hap" Arnold's World War II Diaries; Volume 1", Air University Press, Maxwell AFB, Alabama, January 2002, Library of Congress card number 2001041259, {{ISBN|1-58566-093-0}}, page 88. Douglas test pilot Johnny Cable bailed out at 300 feet, his chute unfurled but did not have time to deploy, he was killed on impact, the flight engineer John Parks rode in the airframe and died, but 33-year-old French Air Force Capt. Paul Chemidlin, riding in the aft fuselage near the top turret, survived with a broken leg, severe back injuries, and a slight concussion. The presence of Chemidlin, a representative of a foreign purchasing mission, caused a furor in Congress by isolationists over neutrality and export laws. The type was developed as the Douglas DB-7.Matthews, Birch, "Cobra!: Bell Aircraft Corporation 1934–1946", Schiffer Publishing Limited, Atglen, Pennsylvania, 1996, Library of Congress card number 95-72357, {{ISBN|0-88740-911-3}}, pp.112–113.

• On June 1, 1940, the first Douglas R3D-1 for the U.S. Navy, BuNo 1901, crashed at Mines Field, before delivery. The Navy later acquired the privately owned DC-5 prototype, from William E. Boeing as a replacement.Swanborough, Gordon, and Bowers, Peter M., "United States Navy Aircraft since 1911", Naval Institute Press, Annapolis, Maryland, 1976, Library of Congress card number 90-60097, {{ISBN|978-0-87021-792-0}}, pp.487.
• On November 20, 1940, the prototype NA-73X Mustang, NX19998,Waag, Robert, "NA 73 – The Forgotten Mustang", Airpower, Granada Hills, California, November 1971, Volume 1, Number 2, p. 9. first flown October 26, 1940, by test pilot Vance Breese, crashed.Editors, "Mustang", Airpower, Granada Hills, California, July 1985, Volume 15, Number 4, p. 12. According to P-51 designer Edgar Schmued, the NA-73 was lost because test pilot Paul Balfour refused, before a high-speed test run, to go through the takeoff and flight test procedure with Schmued while the aircraft was on the ground, claiming "one airplane was like another". After making two high speed passes over Mines Field, he forgot to put the fuel valve on "reserve" and during the third pass ran out of fuel. An emergency landing in a freshly plowed field caused the wheels to dig in, the aircraft flipped over, the airframe was not rebuilt, the second aircraft being used for subsequent testing.Mizrahi, Joseph V., "Airmail", Wings, Granada Hills, California, December 1985, Volume 15, Number 6, p. 5.

The aircraft was operating as flight SK933, nearing the completion of a flight from Seattle. Of nine crewmembers, three drowned, while 12 of the 36 passengers also drowned.
• On January 18, 1969, United Airlines Flight 266, a Boeing 727-100 bearing the registration number N7434U, crashed into Santa Monica Bay approximately {{convert|11.3|mi|km}} west of LAX at 6:21 pm local time. The aircraft was destroyed, resulting in the death of all 32 passengers and six crew members aboard.

• On the evening of June 6, 1971, Hughes Airwest Flight 706, a Douglas DC-9 jetliner that had departed LAX on a flight to Salt Lake City, Utah, was struck nine minutes after takeoff by a U.S. Marine Corps McDonnell Douglas F-4 Phantom II fighter jet over the San Gabriel Mountains. The midair collision killed all 44 passengers and five crew members aboard the DC-9 airliner and one of two crewmen aboard the military jet.
• On August 4, 1971, Continental Airlines Flight 712, a Boeing 707, collided in midair with a Cessna 150 over Compton. Although the Cessna was destroyed upon landing, there were no fatalities.{{ASN accident |id=19710804-0 |title=N47330 |wikibase=No |access-date=September 7, 2020}}

• On March 1, 1978, two tires burst in succession on a McDonnell Douglas DC-10-10 on Continental Airlines Flight 603 during its takeoff roll at LAX and the plane, bound for Honolulu, veered off the runway. A third tire burst and the DC-10's left landing gear collapsed, causing a fuel tank to rupture. Following the aborted takeoff, spilled fuel ignited and enveloped the center portion of the aircraft in flames. During the ensuing emergency evacuation, a husband and wife died when they exited the passenger cabin onto the wing and dropped down directly into the flames. Two additional passengers died of their injuries approximately three months after the accident; 74 others aboard the plane were injured, as were 11 firemen battling the fire.
• On the evening of March 10, 1979, Swift Aire Flight 235, a twin-engine Aerospatiale Nord 262A-33 turboprop en route to Santa Maria, was forced to ditch in Santa Monica Bay after experiencing engine problems upon takeoff from LAX. The pilot, co-pilot, and a female passenger drowned when they were unable to exit the aircraft after the ditching. The female flight attendant and the three remaining passengers—two men and a pregnant woman—survived and were rescued by several pleasure boats and other watercraft in the vicinity.

• In January 1985, a woman was found dead in a suitcase that was lying on the baggage carousel for a while. The suitcase had arrived on a Lufthansa flight. The woman was later discovered to have been an Iranian citizen who had recently married another Iranian with UGreen card status. She had been denied a US visa in West Germany and therefore decided to enter the US in this way.{{Cite web |title=Smuggled Bride Dies in Suitcase, Groom Kills Himself |url=https://apnews.com/article/e5c9b2b9d9e4452976b29109bc9cb3f4 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220920171140/https://apnews.com/article/e5c9b2b9d9e4452976b29109bc9cb3f4 |archive-date=September 20, 2022 |access-date=September 18, 2022 |website=Associated Press}}
• On August 31, 1986, Aeroméxico Flight 498, a DC-9 en route from Mexico City, Mexico, to Los Angeles, began its descent into LAX when a Piper Cherokee collided with the DC-9's left horizontal stabilizer over Cerritos, causing the DC-9 to crash into a residential neighborhood. All 67 people on the two aircraft were killed, in addition to 15 people on the ground. 5 homes were destroyed and an additional 7 were damaged by the crash and resulting fire. The Piper went down in a nearby schoolyard and caused no further injuries on the ground. As a result of this incident, the FAA required all commercial aircraft to be equipped with Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS).

• On February 1, 1991, USAir Flight 1493 (arriving from Columbus, Ohio), a Boeing 737-300, landing on runway 24L at LAX, collided on touchdown with SkyWest Airlines Flight 5569, a Fairchild Metroliner, preparing to depart to Palmdale. The collision was caused by a controller who told the SkyWest plane to wait on the runway for takeoff, then later gave the USAir plane clearance to land on the same runway, forgetting that the SkyWest plane was there. The collision killed all 12 occupants of the SkyWest plane and 23 of the 89 people aboard the USAir 737.{{Cite web |last=Federal Aviation Administration |date=February 1, 1991 |title=Lessons Learned |url=http://lessonslearned.faa.gov/ll_main.cfm?TabID=3&LLID=55 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170305014454/http://lessonslearned.faa.gov/ll_main.cfm?TabID=3&LLID=55 |archive-date=March 5, 2017 |access-date=February 28, 2017 |publisher=Lessonslearned.faa.gov}}{{Cite web |title=Runway collision of USAir Flight 1493, Boeing 737 and Skywest Flight 5569 Fairchild Metroliner, Los Angeles International Airport, Los Angeles, California, February 1, 1991 |url=https://www.fss.aero/accident-reports/dvdfiles/US/1991-02-01-US.pdf |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170305012533/https://www.fss.aero/accident-reports/dvdfiles/US/1991-02-01-US.pdf |archive-date=March 5, 2017 |access-date=February 28, 2017 |website=Fss.aero/accident-reports}}

The "Imperial Hill" area of El Segundo is a prime location for aircraft spotting, especially for takeoffs. Part of the Imperial Hill area has been set aside as a city park, Clutter's Park.

Another popular spotting location sits under the final approach for runways 24 L&R on a lawn next to the Westchester In-N-Out Burger on Sepulveda Boulevard. This is one of the few remaining locations in Southern California from which spotters may watch such a wide variety of low-flying commercial airliners from directly underneath a flight path.

Another aircraft spotting location is at a small park in the take-off pattern that normally goes out over the Pacific. The park is on the east side of the street Vista Del Mar, from which it takes its name, Vista Del Mar Park.
