Long Beach Airport (Daugherty Field) (LGB)
Long Beach (LGB), also known as Daugherty Field, is a busy medium sized multi-use airport, located in the city of Long Beach, California. Situated fifteen miles southeast of the larger, more congested Los Angeles International Airport, it is a convenient alternative. There are no less than five more airports of varying sizes within a ten-mile radius of Long Beach. Its associated Class Delta airspace is adjacent to Los Alamitos Army Air Field's airspace, and underlies the Los Angeles Class Bravo.
