Re: Aloha Kana and Pila – Part 1

Wonderful start to your trip! My brother is stationed at Eglin so it was nice to see pictures! I can't wait to hear more on Hawaii, I sure do miss it there.

Re: Aloha Kana and Pila – Part 1

Oh how well I know that CRJ aircraft (the little one) so well and your aerial shots of DFW, especially were fascinating!

Odd coincidence -our airport shares ground with the 188th Division of the Arkansas Air National Guard. Usually, we see F 16's around.

Great stuff- can't wait to hear how the rest of the flights go. You've inspired me to take more photos during the flight when I travel. [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

I can't believe you had to walk out to the plane - we even had jetbridges in teeny tiny ol' Marquette! [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img] [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/roflmao.gif[/img]

Re: Aloha Kana and Pila – Part 1

[b] NEXT: LA to Honolulu…

We landed at L.A. Lots of haze, every time I’ve landed in L.A. there’s been a lot of haze and/or clouds…

For those that don’t know, L.A. sits in a bowl, surrounded by mountains… All the smog/exhaust discharges/etc don’t go anywhere, they just hover. Thus the haze/smog conditions there all the time…


An aircraft landing parallel to us at LAX


The plane that is going to take us to Honolulu


Rolling back from the terminal


Taxiing out…




Just about to get on the runway…


Starting takeoff roll


Airborne…




In the clouds pretty quick…








Above the clouds, you can see the mountain tops in the distance…


One more shot of the mountains and clouds…

Clouds








That’s pretty much it for the flight over, we landed in Honolulu on time (7:50PM Honolulu time/12:50AM Central Time), and the sun sets early there, I wasn’t able to get any good photos on landing, it was dark…

There were 2 movies on the plane ride, it was just over 5 hours. One was King Kong, I forgot what the other one was. I slept… when I wasn’t taking pictures [img]/ubb/images/graemlins/rofl2.gif[/img]

We stopped at the Burger King drive thru on the way to the house and grabbed some dinner. Got to Mary’s, set up our stuff, and started planning… Finally hit the sack around 9:30 Honolulu time…

NEXT: Our first day in Hawaii…

Re: Aloha Kana and Pila – Part 1

Great update. Sounds like an easier flight than my 10 hr from Atlanta -- I should have done the stop in LA....
