Photo ID 19013, uploaded January 21, 2013

Couldn't really tell you why I took this, except that I love clear days when the mountains of Malibu provide the backdrop. Looking across 7R at the localizer for 25R. Those dunes always seem so close... (50D + 300 F4L IS)

Los Angeles - International (LAX / KLAX) - California, United States

Nothing wrong with a nice localizer shot! Any idea what the three in the foreground are? Never seen anything like them.

Don't know. There are a bunch like them at LAX....been meaning to ask about it.

Looking at Google Earth, they seem to be part of an array centred around the TDZ... but only 7L and 7R have them. There seem to be conventional G/S antennas though, so I'm stumped.

Interesting, you're right. Every time I see them I think "I gotta ask about those". But then I get home, and the couch and TV are just so inviting....

Just for the record, turns out they're glideslope antennas: http://www.netairspace.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=16765

Indeed. I thought we discussed it in a thread - or maybe another photo - and figured it out.

OK, I probably should have looked at the link you posted. Yes, that would have been the thread.
