Fox Field is the only general aviation airport in the Antelope Valley serving the communities of Palmdale, Lancaster, Rosamond. The Antelope Valley “The Antelope Valley has become synonymous with aviation and aerospace development, known to some as “America’s Aerospace Valley,” due to its long history of aeronautical achievement and success. Companies like Northrop Grumman, Lockheed Martin and Scaled Composites have developed a large presence today. These companies, in addition to the continued presence of Edwards Air Force Base (EAFB), the United States Air Force (USAF) Plant 42, and NASA’s Neil A. Armstrong Flight Research Center have helped to preserve the local legacy of aeronautical innovation” (MOAH Museum of Art and History).
