If you’re old enough to remember names like Pan Am, PSA and TWA, then welcome to the golden age of travel! Right on the edge of the runway at LAX is a fabulous, free admission museum dedicated to the history of L.A. International Airport (as sung by Country Western singer Susan Raye during an 8 minute video with archival footage you can watch.)  Flight Path Learning Center invites the public to wander through rooms full of displays to see the wild outfits that stewardesses used to wear, complete with funky hats, mini-skirts and go-go boots.

Listen to your parents reminisce about the free pack of Winston Filter Cigarettes the stewardess gave each of them, in addition to lighting it up so they could have a relaxing smoke during the flight! Sit in seats that were used in a variety of airline flights. Walk aboard a real plane, examine a collection of cocktail drink stir sticks, and spend over an hour being amazed about how things used to be when people flew–NOT at all like today!
