Official Spotting Locations
Sunset Road Viewing Area
A parking lot on the south side of the airport, along Sunset Road, provides excellent views of the runways 7R/25L and 7L/25R. 25L is one of the primary arrivals runways, with 25R mostly used for departures. The fence is 10 feet high, so you will need a tall vehicle to stand on top of, such as a minivan or SUV, or a tall ladder for photos.
