Around the Airport

1Hannuitsesteenweg

The only place we are aware of is at the Hannuitsesteenweg. From here you can see the ramps, and spot landing aircraft. Photography conditions, both on the ground and for aircraft landing, are pretty good.

From the Hannuitsesteenweg taking pics is great. This glider was shot with 140 mm digital (Arco de Heer)

From the same spot you can also document what is happening on the runway. It took 300 mm digital to shoot this Piper Cub. (Arco de Heer)
