When Singapore Airlines came to me and pitched doing something with a small group of AvGeeks at LAX to watch their Airbus A380 land and depart, I was instantly interested and with almost no details said, “yes please.”
Almost five years ago, when I started AirlineReporter.com, I had a hard time defining this passion that I had for airlines and aviation. Once I gained some readers and was able to start defining who we all are (we are AvGeeks), very few airlines got it.
I don’t blame them. It is hard to get how to interact with this group of people that dedicate a large portion of their lives with airliners. Either researching, looking at photos, taking their own photos, flying on them or in my case blogging on them. But we are a force and some airlines, like Singapore, are starting to get who we are — and they like us.
SpeedBirdHD caught N7375A taxiing back and taking off — once again, another great video.

It seems that more and more of you are starting to either be okay or (heaven forbid) actually like the new livery. I just can’t wait to see it on the Boeing 757, which I think is the aircraft that almost all liveries look best on.
Spotting at Los Angeles International Airport will reward you with some of the most diverse aircraft/liveries out there. SpeedBirdHD made a re-cap video of some of his favorite aircraft at LAX in 2012. Enjoy (and make sure you have 17:10 free, because it is hard to turn off).
Be sure to check out more airline videos from SpeedBirdHD (but only do that if you have lots of free time).
