Narrative:

On the visual approach to lax runway 24R while turning right base to final at about 3000 ft, we drifted south of centerline in the haze and got a TCASII RA from an air carrier B767 on final for runway 25L. We had not been told about this aircraft, only about an L1011 on final some distance behind the B767. We complied with the TCASII RA and made a normal landing.
