-You can take the elevators to the top floor and you get a sweeping view of the main runway, 12R/30L, and to your right is runway 3/21. Most traffic is usually on 12R, you can get some nice rotation shots from that angle. Sometimes runway 3 is used and although I have never been spotting when runway 3 is used, I'm sure you can get some nice shots of approaching aircraft, the only problem is that the floodlights will probably get in your way. A quick call to Public Affairs at 210-207-3450 is usually a good idea prior to going out.

-There are a few good places along Hwy 281 for spotting approaches to 12R. In the mornings the lot for Adult Video Megaplex is good, and in the evenings the lot for Super 8 motel is good. Also on Warfield Drive (Drive NW on Rhapsody Dr: it's the first right... feel free to check the Google overview map), there are a few businesses off to the right that offer a great view looking down the centerline of 12R. This road is up on a hill, so you have a vantage point that looks down on the runway... it's an impressive sight.
