The hills of Burlingame, CA has a clear view of San Francisco International Airport. On a lazy day, one can watch airplanes landing and taking off. Most airport video footages are edited to only show the airplanes. This video is purposely left uncut in order to show the air traffic activities in real time. It may be boring to some, but it does demonstrate a different perspective and offer an unusual viewing experience. I counted 8 landings and 7 takeoff in this 11.5 minutes clip. That average less than one airplane per minute. In some cases, only one runway was used. So the traffic capacity can be pushed up more if necessary.
