The '''Las Venturas Airport''' ('''LVA'''), also known as the '''Bone County Airport''', is a [[Las Venturas]] [[airport]] in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]], based on the real-life [[:wp:McCarran International Airport|McCarran International Airport]] in Las Vegas, Nevada.


The '''Las Venturas Airport''' is a parody of the real-life [[:wp:McCarran International Airport|McCarran International Airport]] in Las Vegas, Nevada. The player can purchase [[Juank Air]] flights to and from [[Los Santos International Airport]] and [[Easter Bay Airport]], but no flights actually take off or land without the player investigating it. There are two [[Shamal]]s, a [[Leviathan]] and several [[Dodo|Dodos]] parked at the airport, along with an [[AT-400]] in the hangar to the south. In the south-east corner there is an closed freight gate and the "Las Venturas Flight School", which is ''not'' the [[Pilot School|pilot school]] that the player attends. The sign above the entrance says "Welcome to Las Venturas / Bone County Airport". Also in here is the marker for the [[Race Tournaments in GTA San Andreas#Races|Las Venturas Checkpoint Races]] in where the player can access six different aircraft checkpoint races, provided they have completed [[Driving School]] and the mission [[Verdant Meadows (mission)|Verdant Meadows]]. The airport is located south of [[Redsands West]], north of the [[LVA Freight Depot]], east of [[Blackfield]] and west of [[The High Roller]].
== Description ==
The airport is located south of [[Redsands West]], north of the [[LVA Freight Depot]], east of [[Blackfield]] and west of [[The High Roller]]. Although the airport is officially known as the Las Venturas Airport, the terminal's frontal signage reads "Welcome to Las Venturas / Bone County Airport", alluding to an alternate name implying the airport also serves [[Bone County]], which Las Venturas borders to the west. On the south-east corner of the area is a closed freight gate, as well as the "Las Venturas Flight School", which is ''not'' the [[Pilot School|pilot school]] that the player attends.


==Statistics==
The player can purchase [[Juank Air]] flights to and from [[Los Santos International Airport]] and [[Easter Bay Airport]], but no flights actually take off or land without the player investigating it. Also located within the airport is a marker for the [[Race Tournaments in GTA San Andreas#Races|Las Venturas Checkpoint Races]] in where the player can access six different aircraft checkpoint races, provided they have completed [[Driving School]] and the [[Verdant Meadows (mission)|Verdant Meadows' flight classes]].
[[Las Venturas]] airport has two runways but no taxiways. The main terminal lies to the east of the airport grounds with multiple gates in sight. The east runway is just slightly longer than the west runway, therefore the east runway is used in the cutscene where the user purchases a flight to either Los Santos International Airport or Easter Bay Airport in [[San Fierro]]. The Las Venturas Airport also holds the only flyable AT-400 in the game.
