Dallas Love Field Airport (historic terminal and plane-spotting imagery)

Dallas Love Field opened in 1917 and has served as a major municipal and commercial airport in northwest Dallas throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. The airport's terminals, control tower, and aircraft activity are commonly photographed by visitors and plane-spotting enthusiasts; those images are often shared on social media and used in posts and memes about travel, aviation, or Dallas transit. Love Field is also the headquarters and primary operation base for Southwest Airlines, contributing to frequent photographic coverage of its gates and livery. The airport's proximity to downtown Dallas makes it a visually prominent urban transportation hub.
