Headquarters
From the outside, it looks like any other hangar on the airfield, but when you enter the Angel City Air Headquarters at Whiteman Airport, you find yourself in a modern media center. Inside you find a spacious and comfortable work environment that is equipped to sustain around the clock helicopter operations. On one side of the facility you encounter the media center which incorporates an audio/video system capable of transmitting a microwave signal to the news station, a non-linear editing suite, a multi-scanner monitoring station nicknamed "Franken-Scanner," a radio communications station, an extensive videotape archive, and a "Video Wall" of eight televisions to monitor the content and movements of the other TV stations in the Los Angeles news market.
