Vintage Aerial View LAX Airport

We had forgotten about the gas station that used to be at the exit.

Proposed Lockheed "Skylift" for inter-terminal transportation.

Death Valley Aerial View

Highest temperature ever recorded on Earth was 134° F (56.7° C) on July 10, 1913. Right down there.

بنت الهرم

This is the Bent Pyramid of Sneferu, as photographed by Captain Jivehead while streaking high over Dashur in a World MD-11.

Around 2600BC, some non-union construction workers started building this structure in reverence to The Great Sneferu.

Randy's Donuts LAX Airport Inglewood

Another landmark visible on approach to LAX is Randy's Donuts. We'll always think of this place as, the "Big Do-Nut" which was it's name back in the 60's. Their glazed doesn't quite have the same appearance as they used to. But it smells and tastes the same...

From Airplane Life to you....

Kahului Airport Maui Aerial Flyover View

On December 24th 2008, we went up in N6009V (callsign : Zero-Nine-Victor) so we could take pictures of the private jets at OGG.

Yet another special thanks to the tower for accomodating us that day, amid the numerous landing heavies, helicopters, and what-not...

These are just a sample. We took several hundred pictures ... some of which will meet their demise and ultimately be lost forever in future Airplane Life blog posts.

Oh, and if any of these aircraft happen to belong to you, please let us know. Please be specific. Don't just say, "The white one."
