MYSTERIOUS LIGHTS IN THE SKY! Oh no, we are being invaded by creatures from outer space. Who will save us? What will we do to defend ourselves from these aliens? Are we doomed? Nope, not at all. These "space ships" are commercial aircraft on approach to two of the four runways at Los Angeles International Airport. At this time of night, there are two streams of aircraft approaching two of the parallel runways - RWY 24L and 25R. There are two straight lines of airplanes on the approaches and I believe that they are spaced about two minutes apart from each other. Because of my position, off to the side of their approach path, they don't seem to be in straight lines. There are seven aircraft visible in this shot. So cool to see so many aircraft in the sky at once!
Your blog made me laugh that you were being invaded by space ships or whatever! I look at it as a lovely starry night sky. That is a lot of planes planning to land in a short time span. Is it noisy with so many. I remember lots of planes overhead on Seaside Avenue between New Haven and Stratford airports, but only one at a time.
