BillD22 Posted November 23, 2014 Share Posted November 23, 2014 If you've ever landed at Lindbergh Field in San Diego (KSAN) you know about the somewhat hairy approach to Runway 27 over the tall buildings of downtown San Diego with dense housing areas and busy I-5 and Pacific Highway right next to the approach end of the runway on short final Here some shots of an American Eagle Saab340 commuter flight on that (in)famous route ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyboy208 Posted November 24, 2014 Share Posted November 24, 2014 Fantastic Bill! Flew into KSAN in the Fall of 2013 onboard a Delta A320 and the crew did that same approach, great view from the window seat ! Mike ;) [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sampa Posted December 1, 2014 Share Posted December 1, 2014 I know that approach very well. I saw it in action from my hotel room when I was down there a couple summers ago with my summer choir 1+1=cow :p "WE jumped out a WINdow!" -Baymax (from Big Hero 6) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillD22 Posted December 1, 2014 Author Share Posted December 1, 2014 Guys - thanks for looking and all the great comments The most vivid r/w memory I have of this approach is landing in an American Airlines B720B while going to a conference in San Diego. That's about as big a plane as I think you'd want to land there :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
