It is a landing flight path and is about 1 mile away from the airport. Departures are westward over Ocean Beach unless there is heavy fog and they reverse, pretty rare. The video is taken from the middle of Balboa Park under the Laurel street bridge over the 163 freeway. I can sit out on my deck and watch these plane's final descent and their horizontal position and altitude varies quite a bit and I'm about a half mile from where the video was shot.
