For all FA gallery viewers who are (like me) not familiar with LAX, it may help you get better oriented if you know that the Southwest B737 that is just beginning its takeoff roll is departing on runway 24L. When we turned final and landed, we touched down on the outboard runway, 24R, which in this photo is nearest to me.

Thanks for the snap and the great accompanying info, Gary.
The coastline explains everything. Great photo. Thanks.

Wow....late 80s to 90s I was here a lot when the LAX Airline Collectible Show was at the Hacienda Hotel which was south on Sepulveda Blvd in this view - just down the road from Woodys BBQ joint - classic LAX joint. I see the A380 row at the TBT - wow, that is new, I have not been to LAX since 2004. Great photo Gman and the caption is absolutely 100% accurate - west coast LAX for jet action is tops! 5-A2A stars, plus 5 A seat stars for this one! The old Imperial terminal is in the view and the Imperial parking lot was awesome late 80s when I was there frequently for jet photos, the fence was only 6ft and a milk crate was enough for pics or small step ladder- minus the cargo karts going back and forth just at the right time.......

Viv, Janusz, Big Al, Greg, and Alien ... Hi and TY to each of you. Al ... I see you are "Out West." If you are in the LA area, you are way lucky to live there. LAX is a spotter's paradise. Alien ... That Imperial location is superb. (Grin) We have already yakked about making another R/Trip to LA. This morning, tho, I found out I might have to reorganize my 2019 Road Trip plans. But however those plans go, I'm really hopeful that you and I can meet sometime this year. And it would truly be fun if we met in LA and you could revisit all the spots you used to hang at. There are two places I want to visit, and I actually planned on going alone because one of those places is in some area called "Englewood" or something like that and my pard won't go there. ???? Anyhow, I'm hoping we do get to meet this year. (Thumbs Up)
