Proposed LAX Do
 
Would any LAX (incl BUR/ONT/LGB/SNA) based FTers be interested in organizing a FT DO. I have driven past the Proud Bird restaurant on Aviation and thought it would be a fun place to spend a couple of hours watching landings and takeoffs.

I was thinking a weekend in June or July. Let's see how many takers we get :p

Looks like there were 17 or so at the last Proud Bird Do: http://flyertalk.com/forum/showthrea...ighlight=Proud

I'm always up for a summer weekend in LA. The second and third weekends in July and are good for me.

Well the idea stands then. Looks like June or July would be the go. All interested please post.

I am interested, will likely be travelling to the LA area for business repeatedly over the summer.

Calling IceTrojan who recently commented on the lack of LAX DOs ;)...

The Proud Bird was fun! Too bad they don't have that great happy hour deal on the weekends. Actually, I was thinking about this same topic recently. Especially, since I spent Freddies weekend on my AA Fly3 run.

Count me in... and if I can help, please let me know.

Ok, Proud Bird is basically a week-day place & TelevisionTdTina did a good job of getting us out.

On the weekends - which is when most LA FTers get together - it's Manhattan Beach area etc (which is either convenient or mutually inconvenient for all).

There are obviously other things to do (Freddies Friday for example), but basically if you're serious about people getting together, check the Community calendar & just pick a weekend & post that THAT is the time to get together.

You also need to determine if you're going to make it a dinner only in which case you'll get locals, or if you're going to build it up into a 'do', in which case more happens/etc.

Cheers.

Count me in. Will gladly trek down from LAS just about any weekend.

mr. & mrs. delacpa would love to see out-of-town FT'rs around "our neck of the woods" :cool:

As long as I can get a good fare I will definitely come. I have never been to LA and I am looking for an excuse to go.

ADDED: Since no one has actually proposed a date would Friday June 2nd OR Saturday June 3rd be too early?

If I am not out of the country, I will definitely trek over to LAX on a weekend for a DO. :)

Please count me in as well.. Just tell me the dates....
