I have a large skylight above my bed and most of the flights landing at LAX pass directly over on the way before turning around inland. They are just high enough still that there’s very little noise but they sure are beautiful to watch.
The jumbos are the most fun.
My wife and I used to take our kids down to Dockweller Beach. The aircraft would take off overhead, and the kids used to get a kick out of it. I liked seeing them too. On most days, the takeoffs of the large aircraft weren’t too frequent. It seemed like they went off in spells. Then it would be quite for a while, and then a few more would take off.
That’s really cool....
You used to be able to park across a road from JFK to watch them land over your head. A 747 at night was impressive.
That’s cool. During the summer I sometimes lay on the trampoline and watch planes coming in.
That sounds swell! I’m a tad jealous.
