Bodø

1North west view - Widerøe hangars

On a small gravel parking lot next to the Widerøe hangars (to the west), north of the runway is spot 1. The spot is less suitable for photography however, due to the back light, buffer fence and military installations in the back. Approaching aircraft may be graphed from here if you are lucky.

2Approach 25 - north side

Spot 2 is the control tower of the Norwegian Aviation Museum. From here good views can be had on the eastern part of the base, although photography is hindered by back light and military installations are found in the background.

3Approach 25 - south side

If you want to take photos at Bodø, we suggest the road passing threshold 25, leading to the main entrance of the military base. The road is named Hangåsveien, alternatively take Rishaugveien which runs parallel to the approach path. Taking photos of planes approaching, while they are still in the air should not be a problem. That is, as long as you don't get any infrastructure details on your photos that could be used as a location reference. However, as this location is quite close to the main entrance, don't be surprised if you are questioned by the guards.
