Los Angeles Airways (LAA) was a helicopter airline based in Westchester, Los Angeles, California.〔"World Airline Directory." ''Flight International''. April 10, 1969. (581 ).〕 Los Angeles Airways offered services to area airports as well as Disneyland from Los Angeles International Airport and the heliport at the Newporter Resort, Newport Beach, California, now the Hyatt Regency. LAA had several firsts, including the first regularly scheduled helicopter mail service on October 1, 1947.〔(Airmail and the Growth of the Airlines )〕 In April 1957 they scheduled 17 weekday departures from LAX to 11 heliports from North Hollywood to San Bernardino to Santa Ana to Long Beach; they didn't fly to downtown Los Angeles. The OAG doesn't say what helicopter, but the drawing shows an S-55. LAA was the first civil operator of the Sikorsky S-61, introducing it on March 1, 1962 for a price of $650,000 each.〔("The Self-Supporting Helicopter" ) Time Magazine December 26, 1960〕 Los Angeles Airways ceased operations in 1971 after failure to consummate a contract in which it would have been purchased by Golden West Airlines.〔(Ed Coates Collection )〕 Passengers boarded, in thousands, scheduled flights only: 30 in 1957, 39 in 1960, 396 in 1967, 62 in 1970. ==Aircraft operated==
