The viewing area faces west to runway 17L/35R, so it is only good for photography during the morning hours. Probably only about 30% of all commercial traffic uses this runway, for landings it's even less. Most traffic on this runway is GA.

==Other Spotting Locations==
==Locations to Avoid==
There is a nice place right on the 17R/35L approach path at a cemetery.  It is a nice place to spot aircraft on approach to 17R.  To get there coming east on 71, take the 183 south exit and the first left once on 183 down a road along the airport fence.


==Locations to Avoid==
There is a nice place right on the 17R/35L approach path at a cemetery at the end of Riverside Dr.  Anyone there who is not visiting one of the deceased will be asked to leave.


There is a large pile of dirt located next to the GA hangars. Although it will give you a great vantage point for landings on 35R and aircraft taxiing back to the terminal after landing on 17L, it will get you in trouble.
