-Window seat/left side/behind the wing POV, of takeoff from Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) in Los Angeles, California. Liftoff!! Climb-out to the west, with a quick turn left toward the southeast, then another left turn to the east. Ascent over the west coast/Pacific Ocean/Orange County/Inland Valley, above the clouds. A sunny yet cloudy/hazy/smoggy day.
-Flight attendant announcement after surpassing altitude of 10,000 feet.
-Awesome views of: LAX airport terminals/control tower/runways, Dockweiler State Beach & Manhattan Beach, Pacific Ocean, Palos Verdes, Long Beach, Huntington Beach & Costa Mesa, Newport Beach below us, John Wayne Airport (SNA) & Irvine, I-405 freeway, Disneyland & Anaheim in distance, I-5 freeway, Laguna Hills & Mission Viejo below us, Santa Ana Mountains & foothills, Corona/Riverside/Ontario/San Bernardino to the north in distance, Cleveland National Forest, I-15 freeway, Lake Elsinore/Wildomar to the east.
-Evening flight to Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport (PHX) in Phoenix, Arizona.
-Part 3 (return flight/takeoff) of Solo day trip (Afternoon & Evening) to and from SoCal (To L.A., CA and back home to Phoenix, AZ). PHX to LAX, LAX to PHX. PHX-LAX, LAX-PHX. Southwest Airlines, Boeing 737-700 aircraft (Nevada One livery).
*Hadn't flown to/from LAX since summer of 2011 (back home after New York trip, evening, PHL-LAX non-stop, US Airways).
I was a CA resident. LAX (if not ONT or SNA) was occasionally our airport choice. But now I'm an AZ resident since 2018. PHX Sky Harbor is my main airport.
*This was a quick and fun trip I planned well in advance, to fill a longtime void. I wanted to film, fully and properly, the arrival into/departure from LAX w/ views during the day. This was to make up for never doing it before, when I didn't have a good opportunity. I mostly accomplished this goal, but not to the full potential and desired standards. Thanks to low visibility, due to the clouds/smog/haze. So I will do this again on a clear day with better air quality.
-Filmed with my GoPro Hero 2018 camera, instead of my Iphone SE.
