Flight Pattern LAX

I live next to LAX, in El Segundo, like the title of the blog might give away, I just saw an airplane cut through the residecial area, like it was going to land then vered to the left of a runway flying West and turning South such that it was right in my East facing bedroom window, so reminicent of Sept. 11, something out of place. All I caught of the plane was the green tail, maybe a Ted? I tried to find the airplane on airliners.net, but no luck, guess it is a 767 or perhaps a similar sized airbus.
