This is the first time I've ever captured a reverse operations landing at LAX. I hadn't looked at the airports flow before the flight, so we were descending through the clouds and I couldn't figure out why it was taking us so long to break out. Well, when we broke out over the water, I immediately realized! I've been flying into LAX since I was a kid and this was still the only time I can remember getting this approach! Enjoy! Also, it's worth noting that the shots of the aircraft at the beginning were filmed on a different day than the actual flight. My flight before this one was delayed and I had to run from gate to gate. I barely made this flight. The gate agent closed the door and followed me down the bridge. I have so much footage from the last 10 years though, I actually had footage of this exact A350 at ATL from a previous trip. So if you notice the gate change, that's why.
I flew on this exact same aircraft from SYD-LAX in October last year. Was my first ever flight on the A350 and I had seat 41J. Delta was fantastic but the A350 itself has to be the best aircraft I have ever flown on. N514DN you will always have a special place in my heart as the first ever A350 I ever flew on :) Amazing footage as always :)
Thanks my friend. Glad you enjoyed this one. Want to know something crazy? I’ve flown Delta A350’s three times now. And all three flights were on N514DN. What are the chances? Are we sure they have more than one? 🤣
I was just watching Godzilla vs Mechegodzilla, and now, I'm watching your Super-Amazing video. This was one of the last of the Showa Era series films. That was a very serious fight between that one guy and the ape-like alien there. I watched that movie back in the 1970s when I had just finished high school, so I associate that movie with my HS graduation ceremony and getting ready to head off to college. Anyhow, some good views taking off from Hart. I admit that I was looking for the big superhero battle out on the airfield as your plane was taxiing to the runway, where Giant-sized Ant-Man was tearing apart the wing of that plane, and where The Vision topples the Control Tower with his power beam. Good desert views. We had beautiful sunshine on the Summer Solstice here, and I also did a 20-25 minute swim in the Sound that afternoon. Wow, those were some serious waves there, making for very challenging swimming conditions. A lot of them were literally smacking me in the face. I had to keep my mouth tightly closed so I didn't swallow a bunch of sea water (although it's a good way to get your trace minerals like nickel and iridium). Well, anyhow, I feel jet lagged from watching your video, so I'll resume with the Godzilla marathon while I rest up.
Widebodies on domestic flights is not uncommon on the big 3 US carriers. These are positioning flights to get these widebodies from one hub to another, to fly international routes. This A350 going from ATL - LAX, might then be used for LAX-AKL, or to SYD.
FYI, delta is running their A350-900 twice daily between ATL and MCO all summer. The flights only like an hour each way. May be even cheaper than going LAX.
What a great video! I look forward to putting this on tonight when I'm trying to sleep :) This big boy took his time getting up to speed! They almost never need to push those big engines to the firewall.
Wow! Rare indeed Bryce. Despite numerous LAX visits, I’ve only flown out East flow once and that was probably late eighties and I believe I was last out before closure due to fog.
Once again, that’s incredibly rare to see this approach. I imagine it was due to inclement weather but imagine this on a crystal clear day and the view of the LA basin. Imagine if they flew in over the ocean and completely revered all the way out to ONT and turning to approach on in and the great view of DTLA one might have of the second largest city and metro!
I'm flying to LAX in October. It's my first trip there. I'm flying on Delta and very much looking forward to it. Thanks for giving me an idea of what it will be like.
You flew the same DL A359 - N514DN - on a flight from ATL-DTW a few years ago. IFS Ep - 533. Can't tell you how many times I've watched the final approach from that video.
Excellent video, who doesn't love the A350?? I too have never arrived in reverse flow despite hundreds of flights into LAX. One observation: DL cabin cleaning leaves a lot to be desired - but this is a problem in the US in general. In the footage from 3:40-4:10, there is gunk all over the backs of the seats and especially at 4:00 it looks like nobody has ever cleaned under the display. Maybe I have been living in Asia too long, but it would be very rare here to find the seats in that condition.
Glad you enjoy it my friend. And sadly, that's what you get when all the cleaning is done by contractors for whatever the minimum wage is in that area. Hard to get people to really care much when they make $9 an hour and gas and milk are $4 a gallon. After taxes most of those people probably have to work 2 or 3 hours just to afford their lunch.
@@sla31 It's no different here (JP) or Korea or Taiwan. Many of the cleaners at HND are contractors and mainly Filipino and Vietnamese immigrants. But they have very strict training and the contractor will take away their visa sponsorship if they don't do the job up to standard.
Wonderful video. But the last nineteen minutes - absolute porn for airport junkies! A 7R landing at LAX! That amazing taxi back to the north side. Man, ground ops probably needed a long nap after work that day. Thank you!
Wow an airbus a350 taking off runway 26L is rare for Atlanta. even if its light. i hope to be on that same plane when i do that trip and who knows. maybe you will be there to.
I hold the camera by hand 99% of the time. Mounts, although nice for me, cause vibrations to be transferred to the lens of the camera, which makes the footage look warped and distorted. So, in the pursuit of only publishing, the highest quality footage possible. I filmed by hand.
I do still have $150 credit to use on Breeze. What usually ends up being the determining factor when I take Breeze is do they actually operate that flight on the day I need haha.

Delta is amazing! And the fact that they’re using this aircraft for domestic flights is the icing on the cake 💕 I’ll be on one in less than 45 days
I hope you have a great flight my friend!

So cool that Delta flies the A350 on a domestic route. 100% will be giving this route a try since I'm greatly fascinated by the Airbus A350! 👍🔥

@@sla31That’s actually the exact flight I’m taking lol
I really love the sound of the flaps of the a350
This wing is just beautiful
What a great video! I look forward to putting this on tonight when I'm trying to sleep :) This big boy took his time getting up to speed! They almost never need to push those big engines to the firewall.
Sleep well my friend! I’m probably one of the only TH-camrs who doesn’t get offended when people say my videos pit them to sleep 🤣
Wow! Rare indeed Bryce. Despite numerous LAX visits, I’ve only flown out East flow once and that was probably late eighties and I believe I was last out before closure due to fog.
I flew out on an American 777-300/ER later that night and they were still in reverse ops, so I have that flight coming up too.
Awesome you got to experience reverse how into LAX! I rode the A350 with Delta from LAS to ATL at the end of March 2024! It’s an awesome plane!
I really like the serenity and clarity of your videos.
I'm glad you enjoy them my friend!

@@sla31 Thank you.
Last year in December of 2023 I’ve flew from Salt Lake City to Portland Oregon on Delta Airlines Boeing 737-(932)ER in December 23
Delta Vacations package to Greece 🇬🇷 was awesome last year!
You flew the same DL A359 - N514DN - on a flight from ATL-DTW a few years ago. IFS Ep - 533. Can't tell you how many times I've watched the final approach from that video.
How I got the same exact plane again I havre no idea haha. So I've flown Delta's A350's three times now, and all three times it's been N514DN.
Awesome as always ❤
Thanks my friend!
Nice catch!👍👍
Love the engine roar

Gorgeous aircraft!
Every time when i hear the A 350 depart the engines are roaring pretty loud. Inside the cabin it's rather quiet. Anyway nice aircraft.
The Trent XWB is very powerful, sooo yeah lol
Amazing video! 🤩
Great video! Any idea why Airbus designed the last Spoiler (Approx 4:30) to sit higher than the rest during full flap extension?
Thanks my friend. As for your question, I genuinely have no idea, so someone else would have to answer that 😂.
Cool
Wow an airbus a350 taking off runway 26L is rare for Atlanta. even if its light. i hope to be on that same plane when i do that trip and who knows. maybe you will be there to.
Well, I do fly a lot, so you never know haha.
The a350 is just stunning. I like it better than the b787.
You and me both my friend.
genuine question? the camera is being held by something right? Or are you holding the camera entire time? Big fan, love your videos
I hold the camera by hand 99% of the time. Mounts, although nice for me, cause vibrations to be transferred to the lens of the camera, which makes the footage look warped and distorted. So, in the pursuit of only publishing, the highest quality footage possible. I filmed by hand.
Can u you do a full flight video on breeze airways from LAX to CAK
I do still have $150 credit to use on Breeze. What usually ends up being the determining factor when I take Breeze is do they actually operate that flight on the day I need haha.
The plane is thick
I think that airlines needs a stretching glass before ever flight
Such a large aircraft for a transcon flight??
Passenger demand and company profits.
@@ryanthomas49 We are doing a Delta Vacations to Barcelona in September! Got a great deal!
👍👍
Thanks for watching!
Did you fly over Oklahoma or not?
Yes, this flight flew directly across the middle of Oklahoma, flying just south of Oklahoma City.
@@sla31 About where in the video can OKC be seen, or is that inconclusive?
Clear air turbulence, eh?
Shes a big gurl!
