What a great set, Infact Excellent set. The JBU Airbus is nice especially with the reflection.

Didn't realise Horizan had a Green Q400

Keep them coming, How did you manage to get a ramp tour at LAX to take them? Wouldn't I just love a ramp tour when I go to MIA in Nov...........

Thanks for the comments! :)

Ramp access was a thing arranged through a group i am involved with called AirTeamImages - one of the members is well connected at LAX and about 10 of us went out to LA to meet and do some photoing. Sorry but much as i would like to, cannot recommend or pass on a name for someone to contact to arrange similar tours. We also did a daytime ramp trip and spent several hours in the old tower shooting down onto approaching a/c - I don't have time yet but will try to post those two sets of pics soon.

PS: I think the clouds and the rain made things even better - the rain because it helped with reflections, and the cloud because the bright city lights reflected off of them and gave that rather "different" brown look to the sky. We were VERY lucky with the rain as it started hissing down just after the DC8 shot but let up after about 20 minutes and meant that the cameras just got slightly damp rather than drenched when taking the rest of the pics. I have many more night pics - I will try to post a few more when I can.
