THE BIGGEST & BEST LAX LIVE Plane Spotting stream with Kevin at "Garage Cam" and Rudy covering "North Cam" at the famous IN-N-OUT Burger location where the A380 will fly right overhead. The ONLY LAX Live Stream with multi-cam angles! We'll have JetTip Alerts, ATC and so much more! Join us for a full day of plane spotting as we witness the return of the British Airways A380 to Los Angeles on December 9th, 2021.

There’s a spot very close to Logan Airport (Boston) over which arriving flights pass...at about 200 feet.In late 2019 I positioned myself there to try to catch an arriving Emirates A380 and I succeeded. He was so close that I could almost grab the landing gear. Also,there’s an airport in Saint Martin (Princess Julianna,IIRC) were 747s fly over a beach at about 50 feet. There are many great youtube videos of it.

Go to Founders Plaza at DFW airport in Dallas/FT Worth. The BEST spotter observation are inn the US! A park especially built for spotting.

I saw two A-380’s parked at the gate at Charles Degaulle airport in Paris, back in 2014.

"a spot very close to Logan Airport"

Recent history posted to FR of blue ice contacting those "spot very close", several times.

Watched a few of those. Especially like the ones where there is a hell of a cross wind.

I just looked up “blue ice”. No,I didn't encounter any.In fact when my Dad was alive I used to take him there often.He grew up there and it had great sentimental value to him. We'd regularly see 747s from Europe fly overhead...but no blue ice.

“There’s a spot very close to Logan Airport (Boston) over which arriving flights pass...at about 200 feet.”

KSTL Lambert USED to have a golf course just west of the airport, where, I SWEAR, if you took a wedge and hit it hard enough you could hit the airplanes passing overhead. SO low. SO loud. It was cools.

They took out the golf course, subdivision, etc. to put in another runway that way. There used to be great watching areas too. The 94th Aerosquadron bar and grill on the east end had outdoor seating, fire pits. Indoors one could don headphones and hear tower conversation.

We used to park at Love Field and watch my dad fly in on a Braniff 727 back before DFW was built.

Check out the many youtube videos of landings at Hong Kong's Kai Tak Airport. Kai Tak (closed some years ago) was the home of the Kai Tak Heart Attack. On my first trip there,having just experienced that heart attack,I took a photo of an orange Braniff 747 flying about 50 feet over an apartment building about 20 seconds from touching down.

Did a lot of plane-spotting at LAX back in the day...back when one could park near one of the approach light standards(yeah, long before 911)...that spooky sound from the wing-tip/other vortices...very cool.

A little off topic, but I’ve gotten obsessed with

I live near Pensacola NAS, Eglin AFB, Tyndell AFB, Keesler AFB, Coast Guard Aviation Training Center, and a couple hundred miles from Ft. Rucker (Army Aviation Training Center). We have AF and Navy T-6 Texans flying around constantly during the day. I’ve seen C-130 Commandos, Stratotankers, an E-6b Mercury, and several T-38s flying around the gulf. I saw three French Mirages over the gulf, two of which, based on their tracks, looked to be dog fighting and the third was observing. I’ve come to the conclusion that the most advanced aircraft (F-16s, 22s, and 35s) do not show up on the tracker because I know they fly out of Eglin (I’ve seen them while on vacation in Destin) but never see them on the flight tracker. Pretty interesting.

Does this mean Biden is headed to GITMO?

[Dacula]

Do you still fly over the cemetery coming into STL?

Just flew out of LAX yesterday. We had to pause at the gate to have an unruly passenger removed.
