In 2007 I got some reasonable shots from the beach, I kept a low profile and wasn't bothered by anybody, good views of the runway from this area.

Patrick is great, the lay by is easy to find and very obvious. Don't forget the Titusville museum if you are over Patrick way on.

Melbourne can also be worth a look too but it's a bit further south. Recommend Andy Marden's excellent US Mil out of service book for the locations of stuff.

Hi UK_Tomcat_Fan

Thanks
