A slightly elevated panoramic view of United Airport in Burbank on the day of its official opening and dedication. The Spanish style terminal building is in the center, with the Pacific Air Transport building on the right and a hangar on the left. Parked automobiles stretch across the foreground and into the distance on the right, and a large crowd of people gather around an open grassy area in front of the terminal building. There are rows of airplanes parked on the runways beyond the terminal building, and the Good Year blimp is mostly blocked by the same building. The finding aid describes the airplanes as "military airplanes". Writing in white in the bottom right corner reads "Photo by F.M. Huddleston ; Official Opening & Dedication ; of ; United Airport. 5-30-1930."
