==Official Spotting Locations==
==Main Spotting Location==
===Winters Lane===
Although BRS doesn't have an official Spotting Area, there is a location off Downside Road, on Winters Lane. This area is probably the best out of the few places, because you catch the 09 Line ups and landings, and the long 27 departures when the heavier aircraft such as the FCA 767 are in. Airport Staff and Police seem to have no problem with this; you'll usually get a wave from the ASU. A ladder is recommended for people wishing to partake in photography.


===Location===
This location is off Downside Road, along Winters Lane, on the turning for Tall Pines Golf Club.[http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&q=BRS&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=48.909425,81.5625&ie=UTF8&ll=51.383835,-2.718&spn=0.037925,0.079651&z=14&om=1 See Map.]

===Runway 09 ILS===
 
Below the ILS System for 09 is another place where sometimes people stop, only usually used when R/W 09 is active. Here you can get some interesting angles for photography.

easyJet's A319s dominate here, however one will most likely see one of the numerous Ryanair departures along with BA Connect ERJ-145 services. A highlight of the day would be Continental's 757-200 presence on most mornings as well as numerous charter operations from First Choice to Thomsonfly to Excel Airways. There is a GA terminal on the South side of the airport which sees approximately 3 or 4 movements an hour.
