Official Spotting Locations

	===International Terminal Observation Deck===		===International Terminal Observation Deck===
			THIS IS NOW PEREMENTALY CLOSED
	The only official spotting location at Sydney Airport is the observation deck located in the northern part of the international terminal. The observation deck incorporates the Esky Bar, and food, drinks and seating are available. This makes it a comfortable place to spend some time spotting. The best views from the deck are of 16R takeoffs and landings, and 34L takeoffs. The Sydney skyline provides a nice backdrop for aircraft on approach to 16R. Views over the northern part of the international terminal and of aircraft taxiing to and from the domestic terminal are also good. Part of runway 07-25 is visible, but the observation deck is not a good spot for watching movements there.

	<br>'''Update''': As of early 2007, the upstairs bar at the observation deck itself was removed along with most of the seating. The main restaurant/bar downstairs still exists.		<br>'''Update''': As of early 2007, the upstairs bar at the observation deck itself was removed along with most of the seating.

	Photography is best in the afternoon and evening, when the light is best. The approximate required lens focal length is 50 to 300mm, though 200mm is still fine as a maximum. The best place to shoot from is right at the top of the stairs up to the deck. This is useful for everything except 16R approach photos (in front of the city) and some cargo apron movements. ~~For~~ these, it is necessary to use the convenient holes in the glass wall at the far northern end of the observation deck, just next to the lift.

	Be aware that parking at the International Terminal carpark is very expensive. It is possible to park over on the other side of the Cooks River (to the west of the airport, near the St. George Rowing Club in Arncliffe) and walk across. This takes about 10 minutes - much more preferable than lining the coffers of SACL even more!		Be aware that parking at the International Terminal carpark is very expensive.
