Runway 24 Location 1 (afternoon light )  


On right hand after about 30 meters you will find the entrance to a field where usually employees of the cargo center leave their cars.  You will face a closed gate to the runway. it is better to leave the entrance to either left or right,  because parking  your car in front of the gate may  be the reason for problems with the police. By using a ladder this location is very good for inbound flights on runway 24 and for planes starting at runway 24.
