    Can you tell me the points from where you can photograph airplanes?
    How do airport security feel about photographing airplanes?​
    Priviet! You can't go real close to the airport due to restricted areas, but you can spot from both ends of runway depending on the season you arrive
    ​​​​​
    For RWY 04 - 18th mile Junction and surrounding area or
    the Lagoon.

    For RWY22 - Middle Marker Beacon / The Warehouse / The Ground area is fine.

    For More information contact me or other fellow spotter based in CMB/VCBI via instergram or VK

    Also Please Keep in mind if you are using a DSLR/Mirroless Camera, keep a low profile.

                    Never seen a 777 operating on the AUH - CMB route in the recent past. There's a one today. What's happening?
