1North side Runway 07

This spot is a dirt road only, but gives a view of the east side of the Fokker Services apron. When aircraft are parked there, this is the only place to see them. It also the best place for photographing aircraft landing and taking off at runway 07, especially in the afternoon.

2West side approach

The second half of the Vinkenbergsestraat, the part near the fence, offers a clear view to the north. This makes it a good observation spot for landings on 07, in particular until about 15.00-16.00 in the afternoon. Unfortunately, the number of movements is low, but if there is any action this way, spot 2 is fine for photos.

3Fokker Services

Certainly worthwhile to check out is the main storage area. It can be reached from the parking lot to the left of the Fokker Services gate, and also from the Vinkenbergse straat (dirt track from spot 2). Simply follow the path along the fence. A concrete wall partially blocks the view but you can have a peek at the beginning and the end of this wall. Therefore the best views are closer to spot 2.

4Fokker Services - parking lot

The staff parking is to the right of the gate. This parking is closed with a barrier and is private property, so officially you are not allowed to enter it. Walking onto it generally does not lead to any problems, however. This is the only place to see aircraft parked in front of the maintenance hangars on this side.

5Preserved Harvard

Just behind the closed gate here you can see a preserved Harvard. Leaving this spot for spot 5 (the main gate) you are able to see the preserved F-16 (J-260) as well.

6The main gate

At the gate here is a Lockheed T-33.

7The EMVO apron

On this side, the hangars of the EMVO squadron are located. You may be able to see one or two parked PC-7s here.

8Taxi track and threshold runway 25

From this spot, you can take pictures of the PC-7s before take-off. It is only useful during the morning hours. To get here turn right from the Moerkantsebaan at the police dog training area (called Wouwbaan). You can park your car there and walk towards the fence.

9East side approach

From spot 8 it is easy to walk towards the approach of runway 25. From this position, you are able to make decent landing shots of the aircraft.

10The storage corner

On this spot you can see a part of the storage corner. You can walk along the fence to see more. Based on recent reports, this spot in now seldom used for storage.
