  • Japan Airlines flight to San Diego. Crossing the Pacific, landfall is made at Marin County. Continuing towards the south over San Francisco, the Bay Bridge and downtown. Following San Francisco Bay past the airport - the burnt out wreckage of a crashed airliner lies by a runway. Overflying Silicon Valley and San Jose. The San Andreas Fault at Parkfield. Flyby Sawmill Mountain. Across The San Fernando Valley and Los Angeles. Beverly Hills, Hollywood and downtown. Out to sea briefly and descent at Dana Point, then San Clemente, turning inland past Gillepsie Field and suburbs to line-up with the runway over the Sweetwater reservoir, then straight in to touch-down at San Diego airport.

      I’ve had an infinite amount of memories there, it’s not even funny. Hopefully, when this Covid-bullcrap at least cools down immensely, it can be to a point where I could visit there almost on a yearly basis once again.

    I lived 60 years in San Diego, and California so I recognized ALL the spots! I love it - takes me on vacation again for FREE - without the hastle of flying...70 years ago was a different world. I've lived in Arizona the past decade and hate it, but land and house are now OWNED, no mortgage, have an orchard, and San Diego is an easy 5-hour drive away, back the same night in bed late, with only a tank or two of gas spent. Thanks for doing this video - I'll be watching it again and again when I miss Cali...

    I love San Diego airport. Landed there on commercial flights. Worked at Rees-Stealy Medical clinic before it was Sharp Rees-Stealy. Watched the planes approach the landing. One window faced east so I could see the planes approach. The clinic was just before the highway next to the airport approach. It was awesome. I loved it. Nice to see this now again, as a senior, and saving the YT video. Friends used to have coffee at the restaurant near the airport where they had speaker boxes on the table. We could hear the captain speaking to the air control tower as he approached. For me that was fun.
    As a kid, we lived near an airport in Rancho Boyeros, Cuba where I was raised. I've had friends who flew small planes and made trips with them-only 3 friends actually plus my stepdad. We had some awesome trips in his Cessna 180. I got to see and feel what it was like to fly and land a small plane with his guidance, of course. Plus even at 16 I was too short to reach the rudder pedals. LOL.

    The burned out wreckage of an airliner the poster described is Asiana Airlines 214. It's hard to identify in the video , but it's to the left of runway 28L at the 1500' mark.
    There are two runways that go from upper right to lower left as shown at about 1:09. 28L is the one closer to the camera. The heaviest white mark on the runway is the threshold; the second (that looks like a couple of white dots) is 500 feet; the third (heavy white bars) is 1000 feet, and the white dots beyond that are 1500 feet. The plane is the white object slightly closer to the camera than the 1500 foot mark.
    Though the entire plane was destroyed, all but 3 of the 307 people on board the plane survived. Any number of deaths is terrible, but it could have been a lot worse.

    I like how during the last part of the landing, the buildings and streets remain the same distance below for a minute, because both the plane and the hill is descending downwards. Until the plane descends over the little flat land before the ocean which holds SIA.
