Squeak 17 #1 February 7, 2014 Stuck at LAX, waiting for Mrs Squeak, her plane got canceled so she won't be here until Saturday. Anyone want to hang out on Friday, Friday night.. Anything worth visiting close to the airport? I cant jump, as my rig is with a riggerYou are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky) My Life ROCKS! How's yours doing? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davjohns 1 #2 February 7, 2014 Oh...you mean you ARE stuck, not that you GOT stuck by TSA. See where thread titles in BF send my mind? You can always rent a rig.I know it just wouldnt be right to kill all the stupid people that we meet.. But do you think it would be appropriate to just remove all of the warning labels and let nature take its course. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hear they shoot you if you try to walk more than three blocks in any direction. It would be considerably farther than "three blocks" to get from the nearest terminal to the nearest beach even though the beach really is sitting at the end of the runway and there's certainly no public transportation that would connect the two. Walking around LAX isn't like walking in from an off field landing at your local DZ.

NWFlyer 2 #10 February 7, 2014 Venice Beach and Santa Monica 3rd Street Promenade both aren't all that far (taxi or bus, I guess, would be your best way to get there), and are always good for people-watching, window shopping, and food. Looks like the Santa Monica city bus ("big blue bus") route Rapid 3 goes from the LAX transportation center to Venice (a walk to the beach from the bus route) then on to the Promenade. Okay, that's all the googling I'm going to do for you. Have fun. "There is only one basic human right, the right to do as you damn well please.

BigMikeH77 0 #11 February 7, 2014 Definitely.. I'd say find a way to get to Venice Beach. It's a pretty sunset there and there are for sure some interesting folks on the boardwalk. If you're gonna rent a car, check out Long Beach and the Queen Mary. Good seafood eatin'. You'll drive right by the Goodyear Blimp hangar too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JerryBaumchen 1,048 #13 February 7, 2014 Hi Squeak, Give Rich Grimm a call ( 760-390-5867 ). The Oceanside dz is not that far away. JerryBaumchen Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
