Endeavor over Mount Hollywood

[ModelMan]

Here's everything I got of the Shuttle. A buddy got an invite to JPL so he went there. I decided Griffith Observatory was the best vantage point and climbed Mt. hollywood. At 1,600 feet, the small crowd was way above the Observatory, giving us a view of the entire flight path around the County.

From the moment Endeavour cut in from the water over Santa Monica to circling downtown to disappearing on it's way to the Queen Mary at Long Beach, to its return up the coast to fly over us, circle over Universal, back around us and downtown and it's way over to JPL before finally disappearing on its way to Disney, we had more than 10 full minutes of prime viewing at nearly eye level and at its closest, mere hundreds of feet away.

Thanks for sharing the videos, there was some pretty good shots. I know what mean with glare off the LCD screen, to bad the manufacturers can't come up with some kind of small plastic shroud to cut the glare down. Just something that clips on only when you need it.
