Very nice. I wanted to see this today but decided not to drive into LA. I didn't realize it took off after the initial landing. Great shot!

cynmat... yeah, it is.

adee... yeah, this thing is huge... especially seeing it from the front view.

florian... yeah, i'm glad they did a "press flight" as it gave many people another chance for photos. and you'll get several chances to see this plane as it will be coming into LA a few times a week now.

sutanto... it was a little foggy in the morning but the sun burned through later on...

tripletrouble... truly is! no matter the physics, it just seems crazy that something this big can fly.

stewart ho... thanks

charlenecollinsjamaica... thanks.
