===Domestic passenger terminal===
===Domestic passenger terminal===
If you go to the domestic terminal, there is a good view of the apron from the 2nd floor. However, there are few problems here. First of all, glass in windows is old and dirty. Then there are "Photography prohibited" signs everywhere. Remember: '''There are no laws in Russia that prohibit taking pictures of aircrafts or in airports'''. However, airport security and police quite like to argue about that. So if you don't want to be arrested, don't stay there for a long time. Or at least don't hold the camera permanently.

===UHHT RWY 05 spot===
===UHHT RWY 05 spot===
Conditions here are pretty much the same as for UHHH spot mentioned earlier only staying here is easier because there is a bus stop almost in front of RWY 05 beginning. The only traffic you can catch is morning departures of An-28/38 and Mi-2 and evening arrivals of the same aircrafts. Flights on the rest of the day are very rare.

===All other places===
If you want to explore the area around - feel free do it. You can find many places around the airport perimeter with some hills, nicely growing trees, poles like in RWY05R spot. Main problem of them all is that these spots often not compensate for the efforts and trouble you might have.
