==History==
United Airport was dedicated on Memorial Day weekend (May 30 - June 1), 1930 as the largest commercial airport in the Los Angeles area until it was eclipsed in 1946 by the Los Angeles Airport in Westchester when that facility (formerly Mines Field, then Los Angeles Municipal Airport) commenced scheduled airline operations. The Burbank facility remained United Airport until 1934 when it was renamed Union Air Terminal until aerospace manufacturer Lockheed Corporation bought the airport in 1940 and renamed it Lockheed Air Terminal. In 1967 Lockheed renamed the facility Hollywood–Burbank Airport. The facility remained Hollywood–Burbank Airport for more than a decade until 1978 when Lockheed sold it to the Burbank–Glendale–Pasadena Airport Authority. The airport then got its fifth name: Burbank–Glendale–Pasadena Airport. On November 6, 2003, the airport authority voted to change the name to Bob Hope Airport in honor of comedian Bob Hope, a longtime resident of nearby Toluca Lake, who had died earlier that year and who had kept his personal airplane at the airfield. The new name was unveiled on December 17, 2003, on the 100th anniversary of the Wright brothers' first flight in 1903, the year that Bob Hope was born. In 2017 it was rebranded as Hollywood Burbank Airport due to the lack of recognition of Bob Hope Airport's geographic region. Originally the entire airport was within the Burbank city limits, but the north end of Runway 15/33 has been extended into the City of Los Angeles.
