Great shots, David ! The light on the Singapore is fantastic .. nice work
Killer shots! Love the Air New Zealand! How did you get that shot?
Thanks!! We were shooting from the top of the Terminal 2 garage and decided to take a chance on the sidewalk between Terminals 1 and 2. Multiple cops, TSA, and the bomb squad all took note, but no one stopped to talk with us. Angles are limited by brush and support vehicles, but it obviously has potential!Quote:

Very nice and I agree with Kaz, the SIA A380 is superbly lit!
Air New Zealand is also top notch... I am well aware of the terminal gaps, but I never dared...
Thanks! I think I was only talked into it because I have yet to have a single interaction with any type of law enforcement/authority figure in my spotting adventures. And I just jinxed myself...Quote:

I will definitely have to give that a try in March :tongue: And the rest of the shots you put up are awesome as well. Love the light on the Lufty 744Quote:

Sweet catch on the 767 ABx Air 25!
For some reason David, your photo's aren't loading for me, but here's a few that I took while on the trip-

One of my favorites, A380 at night! I never noticed the double beacon on the top of the fuselage before-

Night Time Fun! by seahawks7757
I'm becoming increasingly jealous that I didn't come when I had the chance. One of the best LAX threads I've seen in a long, long time.
Beautiful shots David and Brandon, well done! I've taken shots at the gap between T's 1 and 2 with LAPD right next to me on the curb with no probs. Spotting at LAX is superb.

Thanks Guys! Jeremy this shots dedicated to you :tongue:
Could be better but I'll take it for now-

The new United Airlines scheme on the 767-300. I still have yet to see a widebody that this scheme looks bad on IMO. Would love to see it on a, hold your breath, A333. That would look sharp!

A United touch! by seahawks7757
As good as it would look on the A333 (and I am a fan of how the A333 looks), I certainly hope that United doesn't add any Eurotrash widebodies to their fleet.
Is the double strobe standard on the A380? I know I've seen photos of A330's next to each other and one has 1 and the other 2.
Will dig on airliners.net... But I keep coming back to that shot, awesome!
What would a LAX thread be without one of these shots?

Last but not least, one of my faves, Singapore A380 from the beach, glad they take forever to get off the ground! I've never honestly noticed how complex the gear system is on this plane-
