According to the Los Angeles Times: "In a week marking the centennial of aviation, Burbank Airport was renamed Wednesday for legendary entertainer and frequent flier Bob Hope, who himself marked his 100th birthday just weeks before his death in July. At the end of the ceremony, a banner with the airport’s previous name dropped away to reveal another with a cartoon drawing of Hope’s famous ski-jump nose profile and the airport’s new name, Bob Hope Airport."
