Looks
like the 10 is jammed.
Downtown Pasadena.
The
Rose Bowl
Downtown
LA and Dodger Stadium.
Here's
a better shot of downtown Los Angeles.
This
fire near downtown was easy to spot from our altitude.
A
shot of Burbank Airport (BUR) looking North. This is a relatively
large airport and happens to be the one I usually fly out of on the way
back home to Saint Louis.
Here's
a pretty shot of the coast looking South from our flight path. The
Pacific Ocean is on the right with LAX the big horizontal runways in the
middle. Santa Monica airport is to the right and below LAX.
Me
flying the plane . . . I always felt uncomfortable when I saw him
point the camera at me . . .
Santa
Monica Airport. That's the airport I landed at when I was on my cross-country
phase check. I'm told UCLA is near here too, but I couldn't point
it out for ya.
Van
Nuys airport, the busiest general aviation airport in the world.
On
1 mile final for Oxnard. The ocean and channel islands are visible
in the background. I was really high on this approach and had to
pull the power with 30 degrees of flap to make the runway.
But
I made it just fine, as you can see. :)
