I don't typically post a lot of these... but tonite was just gorgeous. I did another online flight and looking at the weather (it was supposed to be a lower marine layer but ended not showing up), I elected to shoot the VOR-A into KSMO.
So this was a flight from KSEE down by San Diego to Santa Monica, CA KSMO

First sight of KSMO...about 9 miles dead ahead (can you find it?) I just like this shot... it's so real...can be difficult to spot an airport in the real world this time of night.

Can you spot KSMO now? (hint: I'm a little too high)... the sparkling lights of LAX off my 10 oclock.
