Proud Bird to Close Soon

Another one bites the dust.  Sigh.  The Proud Bird Restaurant near the Los Angeles International Airport is closing at the end of this year.  The restaurant opened in 1967, providing views of the airport and runways.  There are wonderful examples of vintage aircraft on the grounds as well as tons of memorabilia inside the restaurant.  

I've only been to the Proud Bird a handful of times, but always enjoyed my visit.  You can read more about it here.  There's still time to visit this cool place.  The restaurant will be open through November 21st and the banquet rooms through the end of 2013.
