East Midlands Airport: Difference between revisions

Line 37: Line 37:


Drive along the A453 with the entrance to the airport on your right.  You will come to a roundabout - continue straight on.  At the traffic lights turn right towards Castle Donington.  You will follow the road through the approach lights to a roundabout with the viewing park ahead.  Turn left and proceed down the hill.  After approx. 500 yards there is a pub on the right.  At the side of the pub is Diseworth Lane.  Drive along this road and you will come to a crash gate.  There are normally cars parked either side at the end so you know you're in the right place.

'''End of runway 09'''
There are several gateways situated on the road at the end of runway 09, near the approach lights.  These are good for photographs of arrivals on runway 09, and a good view straight down the runway for nose on shots of heavy departures.  Please do not block the gates as they are access to fields.
