Not to mention by sticking around a little bit after, you can avoid the traffic jam that forms as everyone tries to make their way off the airfield.
I've been on Huntingdon for the last 15 years, I've never really given King a chance because I like seeing what's going on and even taking taxing pictures. Can you compare the two? How often do crews stay low all the way to King?AirshowHawk wrote: ↑Sat Jul 27, 2019 12:49 am On Monday, 8 AM tends to be the time I aim for if I have the opportunity to catch departures. If you love low screaming over-head passes, King road is the place to be for Monday.
Well I can’t say one is better than the other. It all really comes down to if you’re filming and taking pictures or just generally spectating. I know most of the photographers have their choice spots. Generally for me Huntington is the prime spot for arrivals and King Rd for departures. I love the noise and on departure day the best way to experience that is on King.
You mean Clearbrook Road? King Road is to the north which means you got the sun right smacko in your face again.AirshowHawk wrote: ↑Sat Jul 27, 2019 8:22 amWell I can’t say one is better than the other.

Here’s an old video I found uploaded by someone on YouTube from King Rd. It really speaks for itself. www.youtube.com/watch?v=pE-NLgBjhrM
Wow, definitely something to think about. I'd love to get some head-on shots. How quickly do the road shoulders at the end of the runway fill with vehicles in the morning?AirshowHawk wrote: ↑Sat Jul 27, 2019 8:22 am Here’s an old video I found uploaded by someone on YouTube from King Rd.

You won't have a problem finding a spot. Many people just come and go and there's plenty of roadway to park.JA Boomer wrote: ↑Sat Jul 27, 2019 2:43 pmWow, definitely something to think about.

I just wish they'd sell tickets to this also... because right now Mr. Joe who wants more A380 pictures feels really... Beyond Sanity prioritizing an airliner and possibly a political chatshow over a second airshow!!!Blair Thandi: Joe A Kunzler Not a show, Thursday would be arrivals. There is a mini airshow from 5-8PM on that day as well. The CF-18 goes up as the sun is setting, and it looks amazing.
