A plane-spotting guide that presents airport runway conditions, sun-angle information, ranked viewing locations, and optional Telegram alerts.
- For
- Plane spotters choosing airport viewing locations
- Worth noticing
- Its airport directory spans four regions and pairs runway counts with listed spotting-location counts; the page names NOAA, D-ATIS, OurAirports, and OpenStreetMap as data sources.
Field notes
The directory groups airports across North America, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East, listing runway counts and spotting-location counts alongside selected hub conditions. The page says runway guidance draws on NOAA aviation weather, US D-ATIS text, and OurAirports geometry; viewpoint data comes through OpenStreetMap/Overpass, with SunCalc for sun position. Telegram alerts are offered at $3 per month, and the page cautions users to remain on public land and treat runway calls as a spotting aid, not clearance.
