Los Angeles in the simulator

The runways come from the airport database the simulator ships, OurAirports's, in the public domain, as of 14 October 2026. Every hard runway over 500 m is drawn on the ground with its markings, from the threshold bars and the designator to the touchdown zone and the centreline, and a PAPI at each end; the ones that are lit, or longer than 1,200 m, also get edge and centreline lights from dusk. At Los Angeles, that is every runway. In the database it is called Los Angeles International Airport, in Los Angeles.
