Moffett Federal Airfield

1NASA Ames

This is the wind tunnel building of the NASA Ames Research Center. In front of this center you will find a decent line-up of preserved aircraft, among others a Starfighter and a U-2.

2Manila Avenue

Just before reaching the south gate of Moffett (from which you will be able to see the preserved Neptune and Orion) turn right. You have a decent view of the ramp, with possible visitors. Also the thresholds of both runways 32 are in full view.

3Clyde Avenue

After taking Exit Ellis Street turn South and take the first left. This is Clyde Avenue which borders a golf course. From the boundaries of the golf course you will have a good view of anything arriving on the runways 32.

4H Street

From point number 2 continue along Manila Avenue, and take the first left. H Street gives fair views of almost all ramps at Moffett: the CA ANG C-130's can easily be read off, but the Blackhawks will pose some sort of a challenge when trying to identify them. However, there is a public parking and from the top roof floor your view will be elevated.
