LAX -- The TV show

Recommended Posts

Damn this kinda stuff pisses me off.

Drunk pilots are going to take off and the ground controller just clears them for runway 10 . . . at LAX.

Ok, there's just so many things wrong with this it's just stupid, but not the least of which is . . . at LAX . . . there is no runway 10.

Who the F did the research on the writing of this?

edited to add . . .

And now they appear to have a runway 8!

And their head security chick just walked (in high heals of course) past the front of an engine being throttled up and didn't get sucked in.

This program is now officially too stupid to watch.

Yes, but you'd expect that if a person was going to write about a well known airport then they might do at least some rudimentary research about it. The name of the show is LAX . . . it's pretty easy. Charts of the airport actually exist.

It's kinda like that movie a few years ago called "Titanic". Yes, the love story was fiction, but all of the surrounding facts were correct.

I appreciate that.

I don't know if you noticed this but during the show they were using music from a commercial as background music - I think it was the music from Lincoln automobile commercials - product placement taken to the next level. I couldn't watch the show for more than 2 minutes because of that so I didn't see any of these other issues.
