Other Spotting Locations

Post Office

The south side of the U.S. Post office on Air cargo Rd.

Take Air Cargo Rd. South until you see the U.S. Post Office, Pull into the parking lot and walk down the south side of the building to the fence.

Photography

You will need a 200MM lens for traffic taxiing by, you will need 300MM for traffic using the runway. A 75-300 or 100-400 will work just fine.

When photographing at this spot I have been asked what I was doing by airport personnel (rampers and post office employees). Don't be afraid of this spot, wear bright colored clothing to make your self look less suspisous.

Hours

This is a P.M. spot. The best times are from 1PM to sundown.

Portland Rd

On Portland Rd. parallel the fence and runway 35R/17L. Note: This spot requires a "shoot and run" technique. Park your car on the side of the road, put your hazard lights on, and wait till you see an airplane on approach or getting ready to take off, get out, take your pics, then leave.

Photography

For planes using taxiway "Hotel" (very rare) you need 200MM. For planes using the runway you will need 300-400MM. So a 100-400 is recommended at this spot.

Hours

This is an A.M. Spot, use this spot from sunrise to 11AM.
