Winglet Over Southern California


Returning home to Honolulu from John Wayne Airport in Santa Ana, CA aboard an Aloha Airlines 737-700W, N751AL ("‘Aukele"). It was one of those days where the winds were blowing toward the ocean from the surrounding mountains. So our departure path took us toward the Santa Ana Mountains, then had to make a 180° right turn to head back to Hawai‘i. Down below is the Orange Country coastline, right before we begin the journey over the Pacific.

This plane I was on, was recently leased to Sun Country Airlines from the leasing company that had originally leased to to Aloha.

Were you riding in the plane or on the wing of the plane? :P It's such a clear shot! :)
