Photograph from far above looking down on all of Oakland Airport. There are labels for every airport building and measurements of the airfield's dimensions. There are five aircraft hangars at the proper left of the airfield, as well as an administration building and the "Airport Inn and Restaurant." The total airport area is 845 acres, but the area of the central "Major Operations Area" is 260 acres. None of the airfield's surface is paved; it is all open grassland. All the land around the airport is empty. No aircraft appear to be out on the airfield at the moment.
