Official Spotting Locations

Location

Important: When approaching to the airport listen to the tower radio to find out, which runway is in use, because when it is 24 the 06 places are useless and opposite.

For both Locations on the 24 leave the Autoroute Trier Luxembourg immediately after passing the the runway bridge at the entrance "Cargo Center" Entering a little circuit you enter a small road after the entrance of Luxcargo.

Location 1 (afternoon light )

On right hand after about 30 meters you will find the entrance to a field where usually employees of the cargo center leave their cars. You will face a closed gate to the runway. it is better to leave the entrance to either left or right, because parking your car in front of the gate may be the reason for problems with the police. By using a ladder this location is very good for inbound flights on runway 24 and for planes starting at runway 24. Bad light conditions before 2 pm !

Location 2 (morning)

Going back to the small road where you came from and heading to the right you drive along the airfield fence. Drive under the runway bridge not leaving the road to the left but continuing an little uphill you stay on this road for about 500 meters, going a little downhill, then on the right side in the forest is a little parking area. Leave your car there and follow the small way to the runway. When reaching the runway fence after about 300 meters turn to the left. Ladder required for pictures of incoming or starting planes on runway 24. Good light conditions until 2 pm.

Location 3 (Afternoon)
