 Various locations within the airport, but outside security, offer reasonable views:
-* Parking Garage G -- 28 departures, and some ramp / taxiway A views.  Take AirTrain to Garage G/BART and take the elevator up to parking level 9.  You will not have warning of RWY 28 departures, but you will be able to see them just after rotation -- bring a radio!
-* Parking Garage A -- Good shots of the west ramp of International Terminal A

-* AirTrain station at the rental car facility (blue line) -- Very good views of runway 10 arrivals on bad weather days; however the windows are often very dirty.
-* AirTrain approaching terminal 1 -- View of aircraft at the International A gates (Qantas, Virgin Atlantic, Air France, Emirates, etc).
+'''Parking Garage A''' -- Good shots of the west ramp of International Terminal A {{anetlink|2675995}}
-* AirTrain Blue Line, between International G and West Field Road -- Views toward International G / United gates, and some parts of the cargo ramp (DHL, FedEx).
-*Terminal 2 Air Train stop -- Good rotation shots of the 28s, although there will be no warning-bring a scanner. At each end of the stop there is an opening so you do not have to shoot through glass. The opening on the north side of the station gives good shots of rotation and the SFO water towers. The south side will give shots of the thresholds of the 28s (with a long lens), the beginning of the 1s, and Terminal 2 ramp shots. {{anetlink|2739252}}
