Notes:

The Hub That Was. In 2007, US Airways operated a large hub in Vegas, with over 200 daily flights. Two years later, the airline operates less than 40. I count 17 US aircraft at the A and B gates in this photo, a scene likely never to be repeated. Southwest's C concourse is busy on this hot afternoon, just as it would be today. Also note the (now defunct) ATA 757 parked near Southwest's gates, which was operating the short lived Vegas-Hawaii service at the time.

Interesting! The picture looks like a Map, and the Aircrafts on the ground look like Toys! Nice Work.
