+===Rua Santa Catarina===
-RUA SANTA CATARINA, a street about 100 meter away from the runway just  about 50 meters higher than the runway. Best place for Inbound traffic is  at the beginning of the road. Park your car at the first possible place on the right side. Then go about 50 mtr. downhill where you can find a concrete box ( whatever it may be) You can climb and stand on this box and  get very close pictures of landing planes. Another possibility is  at the opposite side of the road, where you can find a bar, climb up the hill and get planes still in the air ( and sometimes see the fear in the face of the pilot,because Funchal is not easy to land!)  while standing on the concrete box you get them touching the runway
