Just about every day tourists from around the world and local residents visit several locations near Los Angeles International Airport to observe the big jet liners as the arrive and depart. Many of these people are hard core Plane Spotters whose passion is to spend hours in one location watching the planes in flight. They come well equipped with scanners and powerful scopes to partake in their hobby. Many have been doing this for years and know their planes. In fact, they've visited airports in Africa, Europe and America. A favorite location at LAX for many of them is a small park on the South side of the airport called Imperial Hill.

AeroChannels Katie OBrien went to the park to meet a few of the plane spotters and discovered that many of them come from Britain. (less info)
