What a wonderful place! The Wrigley family, the owners of Catalina Island, constructed this little seaplane airport and founded Wilmington-Catalina Airline in 1931 to fly in tourists from LA. For a literal quick turnaround, a wooden turntable was in use. The company bought the first two Douglas Dolphin amphibians. Its two Loening C-2s, in the background, were sold to Mexico in 1933.
