For the bizjet enthusiast, Scottsdale Airport is located 15 miles north of PHX. Take the Loop 101 north and exit Cactus Road. Drive west on Cactus to Scottsdale Road and turn right. Drive north on Scottsdale Road to the airport entrance at Butherus Drive.
Official Spotting Locations
From the airport entrance, continue east on Butherus until you reach the general aviation terminal. A quick drive both directions from the terminal will reveal nooks & crannies in which bizjets can be read off. Once complete, turn around back to Scottsdale Road. Drive south on Scottsdale Road to Redfield Road and turn left. Drive east on Redfield Road. The streets leading north off of Redfield bring you very close to the southeast perimeter (76th Place in particular) - and offer great viewing of aircraft parked across the runway.
Scottsdale is best visited in the wintertime, and on Fridays, when bizjet activity is more prevalent.
