Zoomed all the way in. I wish I would have had my Nikon D100 with the
telephoto lenses. I just had a cannon 710 in my flight bag. It was exciting
for what ever reason. How many happen to be flying and get to see a new
plane descend down through the clouds. Anyone can see it go up through them.

what that heck are you talking about... safety... photo ops?

Anyone can safely fly 1000ft above a heavy.. or in ATC approach airspace..
IFR.. 3 miles lateral.

But it does look a lot closer than the 7 miles mentioned on the web page.

I was flying into Van Nuys this morning IFR when ATC told us to look
11:00
and we should be able to see the new Airbus's making its first Flight
into
LAX. I took a few pictures.

Even ATC fell under the spell? Photo ops first, safety second. Or was
"traffic a factor" legitimately in this case? (Seems unlikely if you
were
descending into VNY and the Scarebus was descending into LAX, unless that
wake
turbulence is even worse than they've been saying.)
