	The aviation museum gives a perfect opportunity to see planes using Runway 35/17, and is also great to view aircraft very close when using taxiway Hotel, via Echo. There is a fence that can obstruct the view of aircraft taxiing. You can go near the fence, but be wary of passing security cars as they may stop and ask you to back away from the fence, though this is extremely rare, as they will usually just pass without any problems.

	Airport Rd. has a small parking space used by taxis near the fence, though it's highly recommend not to spot here, as there are police patrolling since it's where people pick up/drop off relatives or friends, This spot has an amazing view of Gates 1 and 2. Unless both gates are empty, you will see either a United ERJ-145, E170, or Dash 8 Q200/300. You will also get some views of Taxiway Mike. If the airplanes are directed to taxi to Runway 6, this is the best place to see the aircraft taxiing to the runway very close. It's not recommend to spot here, so do so at your own risk. You may be approached by a police officer if you stay there for some time and asked what you are doing. If this happens, have an ID and a good reason ready. You can spot here, but do so at your own risk, and don't stay there for too long, or the police will get suspicious of you.

			Harvey Road continues until it reaches an intersection where Harvey Road takes a left. If you continue, you will be on Pettengill Rd. If you turn left, you continue onto Harvey Rd. The moment you see another road to your left, and a small road that goes in a small circle, that is Delta Dr. Delta Dr. has a small round road that has a perfect view down Runway 35. This used to be a wonderful spot, especially to catch 35 landings. Unfortunately, due to an excess of activity not related to planespotting in the area, you are no longer allowed to park there, and it is strongly suggested that you avoid it entirely.

	This place is off of S. Willow Street and is a perfect area to see Runway 24/6 landings and takeoffs. The best part about this area is that you are at the end of Runway 24, where if the airplanes are using, is the perfect place to take photos of waiting aircraft. It's also the best because you can see the plane come in high and close. Unlike 35/17, Runway 6/24 is sometimes used if winds are going in the directions that the runway is facing. Bigger planes like 767 and 737-800 can land on this runway, but mostly use 35/17. If you want some close action, the Triangle Plaza is the place to go.
