Took me a while to find on LiveATC as this wasn't actually on the Tower frequency, but here is the full feed: http://archive-server.liveatc.net/klax/KLAX-Final-Aug-31-202.... At 5:23.

Unfortunately their web player is not linkable, but this is the KLAX North/South Final Approach feed (https://www.liveatc.net/archive.php?m=klax6) from Aug 31, 0130-0200 UTC.

That is a friend of mine's site. If you live near an airport and have a good internet connection volunteer to provide a live feed.

I just used the contact form on the site because of this comment :)

I live close to LAX. I'll send them a message.

I bet there is plenty of coverage there for LAX already. In my impression, services like this (and even Flightradar24) at this day and age are mostly interested in coverage in spotty areas in rural areas and far away from civilization.

Don't get me wrong! I'm not trying to demotivate you. Just letting you know that maybe they'll turn you down. However, even if they do so, you can always learn a lot by doing so... and it's quite cheap, and redundancy is always welcome, right? :)

“Or Louisiana” a few seconds after.

Also known as LA!

ATC: Traffic off to your right, north complex, the airplane. Traffic to your SOUTH, do you see anything out there?

Pilot: We've got the traffic in sight, and we're looking for the, err, jetpack guy

Some of these guy's videos have been taken in Dubai, even one where he flies next to a commercial plane.

Which guy?
