This spot is good for aircraft approaching Runway 24. Aerial traffic is very light and a visit is only worth it if an arrival is expected, or if a light aircraft is using this runway for touch-and-goes.

'''Directions:''' This location is not a feasible proposition for walkers. If driving, you need to make your way through the outskirts of Luqa past the Armed Forces of Malta barracks and the airport freight terminal. Follow the road until you come to a roundabout with a colourful phallic sculpture (seriously!) at its centre. You can park next to the shops on the opposite side of the road.
