A beautiful place spoiled only by confiscatory taxation, piss-poor government schools, insane local governments and coddling violent criminals.

This screams HD and better music!!

Aside from the bullshit sirens over Watts, this is one of the best sifts I've seen in a long time.

The city just looks unreal - it made me think of the Matrix or something.

A perfect timeshift. Speed seemed real enough not to be distracting, yet fast enough to be engaging till the end.

I saw Sugarcult was the soundtrack and immediately hit mute before starting. Still nice visually!

Super awesome. I really hope I win the lotto one day so I can learn to fly.

That song is incredibly... lame.

Anyway, I wonder how the hell the pilot learned how to navigate through the maze that is LAX? Especially at night!

Real time, no music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wg_9kwiharY

Progessive Taxi?

In case anyone cares, this was shot on a Canon S95 Camera.

That place looks like a pretty shithole. You know that's the same thing @berticus said when he saw @gwiz665 bend over.

I don't think he said "pretty."

Net neutrality.

Ya, that really stuck out, didn't it. Like crime doesn't happen anywhere else in the LA basin.

Does the "real-time" version have external and internal sounds or is it all muted? At that hight you might hear a siren, but it depends a lot on the engine noise. He did cut in the plane taking off at the end and that was quiet compared to the sirens; which should have been the reverse.

Anyway, it's a nice sift and I thought the music fit in for the timing and setting.

This is amazing! Now what I'd like to see is the take off, approach, and landing at the John Wayne airport down in Orange County. The landing strip at John Wayne is pretty tight, requiring the pilots there to take off at a steep incline. Landing is probably pretty whack too.
