Narrative:

During execution of lax runway 24/25 profile descent at 10000 ft prior to smo we were cleared for stadium visual approach to runway 24R, cross smo VOR at or above 7000 ft, reduce speed to 180 KTS. Due to our speed restriction and strong winds from the northwest we were slightly above desired profile and planned a square turn base to final. Just prior to our start of turn to final a TCASII TA was issued for traffic at 10-11 O'clock. The TCASII RA temporary diverted our attention of our alignment for our turn to final for runway 24R. Turn was started just prior to runway 24R centerline. Bank angle was increased to about 45 degrees to minimize our overshoot. During the turn tower questioned if we were aligning for 24R and advised traffic at 4 O'clock and 1 mi. We advised traffic in sight and aligning for 24R. Actual overshoot was about 1/2 the distance between runway 25R/24L ctrlines.

Title: ACR ABOUT TO TURN FINAL HAS TCASII TA THEN RA. OVERSHOOTS TURN TO FINAL.

Narrative: DURING EXECUTION OF LAX RWY 24/25 PROFILE DSCNT AT 10000 FT PRIOR TO SMO WE WERE CLRED FOR STADIUM VISUAL APCH TO RWY 24R, CROSS SMO VOR AT OR ABOVE 7000 FT, REDUCE SPD TO 180 KTS. DUE TO OUR SPD RESTRICTION AND STRONG WINDS FROM THE NW WE WERE SLIGHTLY ABOVE DESIRED PROFILE AND PLANNED A SQUARE TURN BASE TO FINAL. JUST PRIOR TO OUR START OF TURN TO FINAL A TCASII TA WAS ISSUED FOR TFC AT 10-11 O'CLOCK. THE TCASII RA TEMPORARY DIVERTED OUR ATTN OF OUR ALIGNMENT FOR OUR TURN TO FINAL FOR RWY 24R. TURN WAS STARTED JUST PRIOR TO RWY 24R CTRLINE. BANK ANGLE WAS INCREASED TO ABOUT 45 DEGS TO MINIMIZE OUR OVERSHOOT. DURING THE TURN TWR QUESTIONED IF WE WERE ALIGNING FOR 24R AND ADVISED TFC AT 4 O'CLOCK AND 1 MI. WE ADVISED TFC IN SIGHT AND ALIGNING FOR 24R. ACTUAL OVERSHOOT WAS ABOUT 1/2 THE DISTANCE BTWN RWY 25R/24L CTRLINES.
