Remarks: Taxying off the terminal for some it was a tight manoeuvre to get onto the runway ,just look at the position of the nose wheel, scanned from a photo
Remarks: Just notice how close the buildings that surround this airport encroach on the perimeter,i have never seen an airport so closed in i suppose its why it eventually closed
Remarks: This location was the car park roof ,it offered great landing shots and also good views as the aircraft waited at the hold as it was a single opp runway .this location was at its best in the morning and a 200-400 lens was required now sadly gone but for those of us who visited here I'm sure it will never be forgotten.of no use now but the co-ordinates were [Google earth 22° 19'34.61"N 114° 11'35.70"E]
