No Bueno Dave. I do not think you can stop along the runway. Its posted all along the base.

Still need a photographer?

Hi Dave, the highway alongside Eielson is military terrain and standing there for a prolongued period of time may attract unwanted attention. It certainly isn't comparable to standing at the fence at Fort Worth!
