===Airside - Terminal 5 === | |||
If you take a trip to Terminal 5, you will be able to capture ground traffic, but also depatures and arrivals on all runways, depending on which side of the terminal you are. If you arrive at terminal 5 by the main entrance, and turn left or right before entering the terminal, you will get to the end of the terminal next to the arriving perimeter roads. From here, you will be able to see ground traffic and lots of pushbacks from the Terminal 5 ramps. If the active runways are 09's then you will be able to see very close arrivals and departures at your eyeline, and if there 27's then you will be able to photograph climb outs. | |||
Sometimes police will stop you from spotting here, but i shouldnt see it occuring much, as it's only happened to me once. | |||
Preview photograph shortly. | |||
