Really cool place to go and relax. If you like aviation related activities this will be fun for you. It has really good views of the aircraft. Plenty of parking and tables spread out to have a picnic and enjoy the planes. The grounds are well maintained. Just a note the air traffic has been a lot slower lately due to lack of travellers caused by the pandemic.

I really like this little place. I use it as a rest stop while riding my bike around the airport. You're pretty close to the airplanes as they take off and land from the runway, there's always some families with small kids hanging out here. They also pipe in the air traffic controller radio and you can't always understand it but it does sound cool. Stop by and check it out!

Great place to watch airliners land/takeoff. Hear the engines roar as the planes accelerate into the air. Watch the rolling clouds come in during rain storms. Watch the UPS planes get loaded with tons of cargo. This is the place to witness how a large airport orchestrates many things going on at once with precision. God bless the air traffic control tower. Oh, don't forget your camera and telephoto lens. Attached is my shot of a 747 cargo landing.

Great place to hang out with the kids and see the planes land and take off on the two runways on the west side of the airport. Can also see the UPS facility where plans occasionally fly in or out. Always clean and well kept.
