LAX Flight Deck was hub of era From: Daily Breeze | Date: April 18, 2004| Author: | Copyright 2004 Daily Breeze. Provided by ProQuest LLC.Copyright information

It was built in 1946 -- the same year airlines started moving their operations from Burbank's Lockheed terminal to the passenger facilities at Los Angeles International Airport.

Mike Lyman's Flight Deck was the center of the activity for arriving and departing passengers.

In addition to housing one of the airport's few restaurants, the two-story building contained a flower shop, the U.S. Weather Bureau, a Travelers Aid office, a Federal Aviation Agency Flight Service Station, a barber shop, a police station, a bank, a coffee shop, a Western Union office and an insurance company.
