Official Spotting Locations

Visitor Terrace

You reach the terrace if you exit the motorway at the sign "Flughafen" (airport). Drive along the road and follow the signs to the Terminals. The visitor terrace is located in the departure level between Terminal A and Terminal B. The entrance fee is 0,50€.

From the Visitor Terrace you have a nice view over the apron of Terminal A and a bit of Terminal B. Beside you can take pictures of aircraft taxiing to the runways. Also pictures of aircrafts which are landing or departing on 09R/27L are possible. The disadvantages are that you have to photograph through glass (dirty!) and the light is bad nearly the whole day.

Other Spotting Locations

Position No 2 "Parkhaus Nord"

You reach this position if you exit the motorway at the sign "Flughafen" (airport). Drive along the road and follow the signs to "Parkhaus Nord" (Car Park North).

The Car Park near rwy 27R is good for pictures when runway 27 is in use and aircraft take the right runway for landings or take-off! It's possible to photograph aircraft after take-off on 09L but most of the stuff will be too high. The light is good from sunrise until 5p.m. I would recommend lenses from 150mm up to 400mm for shots on the runway and 70mm up to 180mm for shots on the taxiway

Position No 8 "Schulenburg"

Drive in the direction of the airport and do a left turn at the "Münchener Straße" (if you are coming from the airport, do a right turn). Drive along this road until you reach a small village named "Schulenburg". In this village you take the first road ("Dorfstraße") to the right. Drive this road until the end and you will see the runway in front of you.

From the point "Schulenburg" you can take pictures of aircrafts which depart or land on 09R. You need a ledder (3 steps) at this position! The light is good from sunrise until 5p.m. I would recommed lenses from 70mm up to 400mm.

Position No 10 "Schulenburg-Nord"

This point is located in Schulenburg-Nord. To get there, follow the instructions given for point 8, but instead of turning right at the first road in Schulenburg, take the second one (Hannoversche Straße). You have to follow this road until Schulenburg Nord, where You have to turn left. Now You are heading directly towards a small parking lot next to the taxiway. From this point You have a great view over the northern runway (09L/27R) an its taxiways. For shots on the runway it's good to have at least a 300mm lens (for aircraft down to CRJ-size). The taxiway is very close here, so You really need a wide angle lens (e.g. 30mm for a Yak42). If RWY 09L is in use, every plane will pass this spot during landing and take off, but smaller planes landing on 27R often leave the runway before they reach this spot. To get clear of the fence, a 3-step-ladder is necessary here. The sun is in Your back from early morning until around 5 pm.

Locations to Avoid

If you use the position mentioned above you shouldn't get any problems. Sometimes the airport security might bother you because your car might be parked at a wrong place and so on, but if you speak to them and explain them your concern they'll accept you! Please note, that it's forbidden to use an airband scanner in Germany!
