The 777 is the most elegant plane in service. Seen here about to touch down on 24R with some beautiful light shining on those powerful Rolls Royce engines. Inbound from Shanghai.

The owner of this aircraft is the famed director Francis Ford Coppola. From watching his movies, you get the sense that he has quite an imagination and it shows on this aircraft. This very unique paint scheme is certainly an attention grabber, and in my opinion, its nice. Seen here landing on 24R just in time to celebrate the 4th of July in sunny LA!

Well, I don't think conditions could get any better then this for sunset shooting, and to add to that a beautiful Air China 747 decides to make an entrance just when the light becomes perfect.

A Very delayed MEL bound flight is seen here rocketing off 25L on a hazy day here at LAX. I can only presume this rare daytime departure had something to do with the recent cracks that have been discovered on the wings of several A380 including one from QF, I can only assume that this was that plane. Although this may cause some uneasy feelings from passengers, QF reassures them that these cracks pose no threat to safety, so there she goes, off to Melbourne!

What a view the passengers sitting on the right side of the UAX flight must have had! We can also see the difference the sun can make.
