Hello All,
Weather permitting i will have a couple of hours to have the camera out in LTN tomorrow,Is there a vantage point within walking distance from the ternminal?.I believe somewhere near the “bridge” has ok views?
Thanks,
Gary O

Yeah thanks for that I went to those two spots near the terminal,got some nice shots will post later.So cold though,last maybe an hour in total,sun came out too,never realised how easy it was to get to these spots!

You can resolve the sun problems just by walking under the bridge and up the verge on the other side. You can’t miss the bridge from the terminal 🙂
Excellent shots also possible from an area just next to the terminal overlooking the stands where Wizz and Monarch tend to park (and other aircraft taxi by on the Delta taxiway).
Full details can be found here:

Ahh no bother. You can get decent sunlit shots of the ramp from Percival way near where the main biz ramp is..been a long time since i been there,not sure how it is fence-wise.. happy hunting anyway.:D

Cheers for your reply,I dont think i will have that long to see LTN,flying in/out of STN as times are a bit better for me.

Gary.. You can shoot from the bridge,but anywhere terminal side will be looking into the sun all day.Not within walking distance,but a taxi or kind local spotter will get you to the awesome spot in the map below…far and away worth the bit of travelling to get there. (think it is called Chiltern Green Road)
