Information please

Post by TARGET » Fri Sep 06, 2013 7:19 am

I am hoping to visit on Monday for the Airshow departures. At the moment weather forecast suggests 27 will be active runway. The best positions for photography would seem to be south of the 27 Piano Keys(on the beach) or near the old 04 threshold. Could someone please advise if these locations are still options and if so how high the fence is. Any information would be very much appreciated.

I don't think they left today. One flew a sortie and landed back at Leuchars. Both still on the ground when I left at 16:00-ish.
