Spotting area in front of the airport

At this point, a plane lands directly above your head. You need to look at arriving planes in advance via FlightRadar24 (Android app, iPhone app or website), choose the arrival time and arrive early (often planes arrive earlier). It is best to track online. I recommend choosing a time when planes arrive one after another, usually in the morning.
