Agua Dulce Airpark (FAA LID: L70), also known as Agua Dulce Airport, is a public-use airport located 2 miles (3.2 km) east of the central business district of Agua Dulce, in Los Angeles County, California, United States.
The airport was built in 1958 by Jim Annin and two partners. In the 1990s, local residents fought an attempt by Los Angeles County to buy the airpark and convert it to a regional airport. In October 2005, former airport owner Barry Kirschner sold the property to Wayne and Connie Spears, owners of Spears Manufacturing and Spears Motorsports. Facilities and aircraft
Agua Dulce Airpark covers an area of 190 acres (77 ha) which contains one asphalt paved runway (4/22) measuring 4,600 x 50 ft (1,402 x 15 m). For the 12-month period ending May 15, 2006, the airport had 2,880 aircraft operations: 62% transient general aviation and 38% local general aviation.
Filming location
The airport has been used as a filming location for projects including:
- The 1983 video for the "Weird Al" Yankovic song, "I Love Rocky Road", was filmed at this airport.
- The Macgyver tv series used the airport as the "Sparrow Ridge Airport", Arizona, in Season 1, episode 6, "Last Stand" (1985).
- For the 1997 film, Fire Down Below, a gas station/minimart set was built on the runway.
- The 2000 film, Space Cowboys, used this location as the fictional Bonneville Pass Airport.
- The "Roswell" TV series used this in at least five episodes, over three seasons (1999-2002): The gas station and the Cafe exterior in season 1, the airport as a background and the interior of the Cafe in season 2, the hill that faces the runway in season 3. Also, the view in the distance is used as a distant shot of the town of "Roswell" in promotional materials.
