Pathankot

1Southeast side approach

For this spot, do not follow the access road to the airport terminal but take the smaller road forking off to the left after you have passed the railway. This is a gravel road for the first bit but becomes paved after about 2 kilometres after passing a quarry related build-up area. Shortly after you will actually reach the eastern perimeter wall of the terminal. Immediately after that, make a right. Another quarry is in front of you. You can leave the car and walk for about 20 minutes towards the approach or just go for it by car, believe me it is reachable...
Anyway, you are close to the approach, and it is great with morning light. You will attract lots of attention of the people working in the quarry though.

2Northeast approach

The north side offers little to no obvious possibilities. The south side of the through road is mainly occupied by military terrain and other walled off premises. There is a small patch of barren land and farmland just before the approach, but in 2009 access to the that patch could not be found.

3South side approach - distant

An alternative to spot 1 can be found by following the road further south. At one point there is a street right leading to an estate. You can drive past that and reach the river bank. Most of the MiG-21 will make a long approach, so you should be okay here. The spot itself was found, but no flying activity so no real verification.
