Every time I see the A380, it still amazes me how they make the 747 look so small. Not to mention how quiet they are on approach!


If any of you loyal planespotters are in Monterey, there is a great restaurant at the airport (19th hole) that has a patio where you can watch all of the planes take off an land - including the private planes. One time when I was flying out I saw Trump's jet at the private terminal.

LAX spotting Videos

I think my best so far and a excellent selection of takeoff and landings is this one: http://youtu.be/AEzUuFomqrI

The others videos are shorter but interesting too. Enjoy guys!

Nothing exciting as I had a wimpy camera on me and was shooting through a window at BOS but here's a few pictures of random planes...if you can tell me what they are that'd be great!











I know this is the 747
