Gothenburg City Airport is a small airport with general aviation and today only one airline operate scheduled flights here (Ryanair). 
The airport handles a large amount of Bizjets, VIP flights and occasional charter flights. 
The main runway is 01/19 but there is a smaller runway available for general aviation 04/22.

==Official Spotting Locations==

===Terminal===
Inside the small terminal there is a cafe where you have pretty good view of the runways. Unfortunately the Ryanair flight parks too far left for a good view. You can also stand right outside the cafe for a good view through a fence.

==Unofficial Spotting Locations==

===End of Runway 19===
If you drive or walk from the terminal towards the threshold of runway 19, keep going 100 meters after passing the runway. There is a small road leading up on your left. This will take you to the approach lights and a great view of the runway and terminal. You can be aligned with the runway under the approach lights and get good shots.

===Touchdown Runway 19===
There is a good spot on the right hand side of runway 19. Just walk next to the little knee-high fence until it ends, very close to the touchdown zone on runway 19.
The light is best in the afternoon at summertime for photography.

===Security Gates===
Just left of the terminal there is a big gate with fair space in between so you can get a good shot of taxying aircraft.

===Alleby Runway 01===
If you drive towards Alleby there is a Riding ground for horses. Just next to that is the threshold for runway 01.
Either you can shoot them on approach, like this:

Or you can shoot them rotating off runway 19, like this:

==Locations to Avoid==

===End of Runway 19===
This spot is excellent, but security can chase you off here as you are only within 5-10 meters from the active runway.
But you can get away with it, and get GREAT shots!
