Default Short Final For Runway 16R

This was my first visit to the Ikea car park on the 16R approach - a great location for close up action. Unfortunately Tuesday was overcast and dull all day, so fairly poor light, but this give a good indication of the shots from this location. The video and images below were shot between 4pm and 7.30pm. I will give this loaction another go when the weather has improved.

Watch The Video





























You can even shoot the approaches for Runway 16L.

I went around there on Wednesday Grahame. I went a bit further down towards the Lights. Of course as I got there they changed operations to 25. But as was the case with Tuesday it was overcast anyway, so pics would be crap. Next time I am down in good weather I'll give it another go.
