	A secondary location is only good on days when planes are landing on 1L from the south or 9 from the west (rare), there is a small gravel lot at the corner of 104th street and NW Hampton road. This spot is ~~very~~ far off the beaten path, it's miles out of the way regardless of where you are coming from. Bear in mind that KCI owns most of the farmland surrounding the airport, including this area. Just because you are outside of the perimeter fence does not mean you aren't on airport property. I've never been asked to leave this location, likely because it is so remote.

	There are no known decent spotting locations for arrivals on 1R. Spotting on runways 19R and 27 is easy, however, there are no parking spots and local police will arrive within minutes of a car parking on the shoulder of I29 or an access road.

	Spotters may be tempted to park in the short term parking called the "circle lots". Photography from these lots will quickly attract unwanted attention. Recent "enhancements" to the perimeter fences have made it nearly impossible to get quality shots of taxiing planes anyway.
