Paya Lebar

1South side -approach runway 02

From Eunos Link, take Kaki Bukit Avenue 2. This heads straight for the perimeter wall. From there, and the adjoining piece of barren land, the approaching aircraft can be spotted and 'graphed. You can also pick a spot along Kaki Bukit Road 1, but you will be under the approach then.

2Airport rd over pass

The newly constructed fly-over over passes airport road. Just south of this, there is a pedestrian over pass. From this over pass you can photograph aicraft with some difficulty. You need 400mm and will be looking over some buildings. Only do-able for larger aircraft.

3Museum

If you stay on the airport side and not enter the over pass, you can make a right towards the airport on airport road. To the right is the Air Force Museum. From the esplanade of the museum building you can peek inside a hangar on the airfield, but that is the only glimpse you can get of the active stuff from here.

4ST Aero

From Eunos Link go right onto Airport Road. As the name suggests, this will take you onto the airfield terrain. This road crosses the taxiway from apron A (airside ramp) to apron B (landside ramp). It offers views from towed aircraft and the odd one parked outside, but only in the gates are open as the fence is covered in cloth. No photography as guards are present when aircraft are moved from one side to the other.

5Northeast side ramp

If you can beat the wall around the airport at the point were Tampines road bends, you can look straight down the Hercules ramp. You will need afternoon light for this and, tree climbing skills.

6North side - approach 20 - p.m.

The northern approach is less comfortable. You need to find a spot jus before the ramp from Tampines Road onto Tampines Expressway. Follow the Old Tampines Road for a bit. The trees prevent a clear view on the approach.

7Northside - approach runway 20 - a.m.

In the morning, you can best look for a spot on the north side of the Tampines Expressway (TPE). Cross the express way and make a right and left, so do not enter the TPE. You should now be on Lorong Halus. The approaching aircraft will be a bit high, but you have a better downwind view.

8Southeast side apartment buildings

With all those high rise apartment buildings there are bound to be some that render views of the airfield. Late last century, the best appartment complex was the one on the corner of Kaki Bukit Avenue 1 and Jalan Damai. These are two flats with a parking hall in between. Take apartment building 660, the second to last stairway and head for the 14th floor (by lift obviously ;-) From there you can see part of the Hercules ramp and airfield infrastructure. With the current pace of building, chances are that your view has become obstructed by now. If that is the case, find a high rise building closer to the airfield and report the new address to us!
