Shots from LAX 10/30/07

[Matt Molnar]

First plane to greet me on my first trip to In-N-Out...Shamu! I knew it was going to be a good day.















After getting a talking-to from the LAPD, I moved to Imperial Hill, which I liked better anyway.







Spotting nirvana: while this BA 744 was lifting off 25R, and Air New Zealand 744 left the ground simultaneously from 24L! It was quite a sight, but unfortunately they were too far apart to get them both in a frame.


I was hoping "Air Colbert", seen here taxiing to the gate, would be my ride home later that night, but it was not.

Some freighter action:






And my favorites of the day:

I'm seeing a lot of that Malaysia plane...is that a special scheme, or do all of their planes look like that? It rivals Wunala Dreaming in coolness.

[Matt Molnar]

That is their special "Hibiscus" livery. IMHO it's way nicer than Wunala Dreaming. :)

Excellent shots Tom. LA is a fun place indeed. Do post some more.

Yes they have two. "Papa Bravo" and "Papa Delta" (9M-MPB & D)

Great shots Matt! Your shooting is getting better and better. Glad you got to enjoy LA's aviation world. That Malaysia is gorgeous.
