Naval Auxiliary Landing Field Santa Rosa, Former military airfield in Santa Rosa, United States

Naval Auxiliary Landing Field Santa Rosa is a former military airfield with two concrete runways, each about 7,000 feet long, laid out at right angles to each other. The property now sits inactive and shows signs of its past use as a training center for fighter planes and other military aircraft.

NALF Santa Rosa was commissioned in 1943 as an outlying landing field of Naval Air Station Alameda, with two 7,000-foot concrete runways. Along with the outlying fields at Cotati and Little River, it supported training of 21 squadrons of fighters, dive bombers and torpedo planes during World War II. The Navy relinquished the field between 1946 and 1948, reactivated it in 1951 for the Korean War, and abandoned it between 1952 and 1954.

The site's later name, Santa Rosa Air Center, survives in the 1990 film Die Hard 2, whose scenes were shot there, and in Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot!, filmed over four weeks in 1992, a year after the airfield closed for good.

The two 7,000-foot concrete runways crossed at right angles, one aligned 160–340 and the other 060–240, each with a parallel taxiway and a concrete apron in the northwest quadrant of the crossing. The airfield closed permanently in 1991, so there is no active aviation use; the former Santa Rosa Air Center site is not set up for visitors.

The site was used as a filming location for the action film Die Hard 2 in 1990, before being permanently closed in 1991. This Hollywood connection makes it an interesting spot for movie enthusiasts who want to see real locations from well-known productions.
