The civil terminal offers views of the ramp. Photography of parked aircraft is possible, but not allowed. The civil terminal can be found by following the signs to the Departure terminal.

2Military Gate

The gate to "Baza 90 Aviatie de Transport Gheorghe Banciulescu" can be found by taking the last right from Higway 1 before the civil terminal (coming from the South). Views of the airport are difficult, but the stored aircraft, if present, can be seen from here. From the trees to the right of the maingate (right to the grassfield), some aircraft can be read. Walking from the military gate towards the terminal offers more views.
