I’ve stayed at that hotel as well. The view of the inbound traffic if they are landing to the south or taking off to the north is great.

There still seems to be a great spotting point at the approach end of 19 that is still open. Everytime I’ve been there the little parking lot has a hand full of cars and people standing watching the traffic. There’s always a police officers squad car there but I’ve never watched him give anyone a hard time.

Here’s a picture from the runup pad adjacent to that spotting point.

At the same moment looking out the right window shows the Pentagon just off the right wing.

A look to the East down the Washington Mall from over the Potomic River on the River Visual still.

This about 2 miles out on the River Visual for Runway 19 into DCA. The Washington Monument and Capital Building are visible over the nose.

One day I was on the IAD ramp taking some pictures of an Aeroflot 767 when a ramper approached us asking what we were doing. I just explained that I was taking pictures and started talking about Aeroflot. It turns out he use to be a ramper for Aeroflot but had moved to a different airline in the same concourse.

He said that one day he and his fellow rampers were sitting in Operations waiting for a call from their inbound Aeroflot flight before heading out to the ramp area. They never received that call but they did get a call from the control tower. The tower asked that they bring a tug out and pull their inbound Aeroflot aircraft off the runway. What happened? Did they have an accident? No, the tower explained that they ran out of gas and the engines flamed out on the landing roll.

They never informed any controller or their operations personnel that they were in a fuel critical situation. The first and last time anyone heard from them about it was when they explained that they were stopped on the runway with no gas.

Never flown on them and never will.
