FBO and charter/management company Advanced Air (Booth 2031) has transformed Jack Northrop Field/Hawthorne Municipal Airport into one of the Los Angeles area’s premier destinations. Once just a viable alternative airport for those who didn’t want to fly into busy Van Nuys, Los Angeles International, or John Wayne/Orange County, Hawthorne has developed its own business aviation haven.

“This used to be a sleepy airport with no hangars with doors, leaky roofs, and no new construction since the 1970s,” said Advanced Air president and founder Levi Stockton. “Now see what we’ve built. We’ve brought in some tenants from Santa Monica Airport [which is closing at the end of 2028], and we’ve built more than 200,000 square feet of hangar space, including 75,000 square feet on the north side.”
