Flight Path History.

In the beginning.  The Flight Path Learning Center of Southern California was founded in 1995 as a nonprofit, community-based organization. Their goal is to honor aviation pioneers, recognize the economic importance of aviation and aerospace to Southern California.  They encourage youth to pursue education and careers in aviation-related fields. The kickoff project was a series of sidewalk plaques in the LAX business district saluting aviation pioneers, organizations, and locations. This “Flight Path” is the aviation equivalent of the famed Hollywood Walk of Fame.

In November 2002 the Los Angeles Board of Airport Commissioners officially authorized Flight Path to operate an educational facility and museum in the LAX Imperial Terminal.

Unique among the fine aviation museums in Southern California is the Flight Path Museum’s location. They are the only aviation museum and research center situated at a major airport.  And, the only facility with a primary emphasis on contributions of civil aviation to the history and development of Southern California.

In 2019 the Board of Directors renamed The Flight Path Learning Center of Southern California to Flight Path Museum LAX.

 

By the way, do you remember when flight attendants dressed like this…and they were called stewardesses?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

One of Flight Path’s primary mission is to help children and young adults explore the potential of an aviation career. The Flight Path Museum LAX has several programs in place to promote aviation education.
