The viewing area faces west to runway 17L/35R, so it is only good for photography during the morning hours.

Most traffic on this runway is GA. | The viewing area faces west to runway 17L/35R, so it is only good for photography during the morning hours.

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. | |||

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. | There is a large pile of dirt located next to the GA hangars.
