Re: Twilight Landing at LAX

Great video!! =D>

I like the captioning and the tune. I'll admit that I was involuntarily puckering a bit on short final because of the speed (I know some of you are military guys laughng at me now).

Does your bird have wing-mounted AND cowling mounted landing lights?

Re: Twilight Landing at LAX

That's a really cool video! I came into LAX on a United (SkyWest) flight last week from Boise and flew the same route as we do many times in the past. Really cool on a clear night like that.

Couple of questions.........

1. Why do a lot of airliner planes have small windows that is hard to sight see out of for a normal to large size people?

2. Has anyone here flown in and out of LAX in their small plane?

I know there is a $100.00 landing fee at LAX and the best time to do it would be past midnight. I know I may sound like a nut, but I'd like to land at LAX one of these years. In fact, I would like to try and land at all public airports and "public welcome" private airports on the LA Terminal Chart one of these days.
