From 1970 to 1983 the Los Angeles Department of Airports, now called [[Los Angeles World Airports]] (LAWA), acquired about {{convert|17750|acre|km2|0}} of land east and south of [[United States Air Force Plant 42]] in unincorporated Los Angeles County to be developed into the future "Palmdale Intercontinental Airport," an alternative to [[Los Angeles International Airport|LAX]].
