Frequent Traveler University was fantastic, but I caught a horrible cold and my post-writing juices have stalled. So… while I wallow in my own pity and recover, check out this floater of a DC-10 landing at LAX. I’ve never seen an aircraft touch down that far along runway 25L.

P.S. I’ll reply to the many emails I’ve received in the last couple of days as soon as possible – sorry for the delay!

  1. Wow…that plane was going parallel to the ground for wayyyyy too long!

    Going parallel to the ground is generally a good thing…it’s called flying :)

    Looks like the plane is in ground effect. I miss flying United’s DC-10′s. So many fond memories as a kid.

    @Ari: Ha! ;-)
    @hulagrrl210: I sorely miss DC-10s… loved flying that bird.
