Official Spotting Locations

Parking Garage

Best view for approach and departure traffic as well as gates 1-3 on the south side of the terminal. Access is gained through the main entrance and is $2.00 or the first hour and $1.00 for each additional hour. This spot is good year round but can be hot in the Summer months. 150-200mm lens suggested.

Aviation viewing lot

The viewing lot is accessed by taking Wright Brothers Way north. There is a covered picnic table. This area has some trees that occlude the viewing area of the north end of the runway, however, if flights are taking off from 35, once can see them once they clear the tree line. This spot is better in the Fall/Winter. Requires at least a 300mm lens.

Other Spotting Locations

Westfeldt Park

This is a small walking park and river access at the South end of the runway. It is accessible from Ferncliff Park Dr. You can park and walk across the road to the end of the runway and get some decent approach photos of 35. This location is good year round but may require at least a 200mm lens.
