Los Angeles International Airport (LAX)
8 October 2011


Periodically, Skytamer likes to visit Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), grab a quick lunch at a local takeout place, and visit the LAX overlook in El Segundo. The following sequence of photos was taken on 8 October 2011. The photos have been sorted by manufacturer, designation and construction number. What is interesting about the photos is that instead of showing just one photo of an individual aircraft, we have included the actual takeoff sequences, which show the various stages of gear retraction as the aircraft takes off. Enjoy!
