Real Pictures over the Los Angeles Basin Area

[Guest]

These are some pictures my wife took while we were out flying on a Sunday afternoon. One is of Long Beach, one is of us at 4500' in the LAX special flight rules area and the other is us on final into Hawthorne airport (KHHR). Enjoy!Damon

I love LA! I got my private out of SNA, I used to pick my sister up at SBA using the special VFR corridor over LAX (where it looks like you took at least a couple of those picks.) I moved to North Dakota to go to college and all, but I'll be back in SNA after 4 years, thanks a lot for reminding me of home!

>I'm going to LA, San Francisco, Vegas, Grand Canyon ,etc >next year, cant wait! :-) That's funny. I'm from LA (well, Pasadena), and I went to San Francisco, Vegas and the Grand Canyon all in the last year....Next up is the Pacific North-West--Seattle and British Columbia. But I can wait for that trip...after all, it's only another week-and-a-half to go.

So that's what my city looks like when it's sunny? I've only flown in 2000ft ceiling overcast/broken clounds over LA and didn't get to see much. But I did do a 180 over the twin towers to land in KSMO. When you have more please post!http://turnhead.com/dot/alex/banner-retro-cool.gif

Great photos.I'm from Wellington, New Zealand, so LA is like a dot on a map to me.What is the island in your second shot at the end of the wharf? Looks like it has buildings on it????ThanksAllblack

Allblack,On the wharf where you can see the round dome, that's where the Spurce Goose (sp?) is housed. The large ship the Queen Mary is a floating hotel.
