Spent about an hour last Friday on Bayswater Street, Boston, MA directly proportional to runway 22R to obtain some hour long spotting footage. It is an excellent spot to watch takeoffs when the winds are from the South or West. Though the jet fuel will get to you after awhile ;). The video shows the excellence of ATC (when they are awake).This is what I got, reduced to 2:30 minutes:
After about an hour of hanging out, a couple officers in a Boston Police cruiser pulled up beside me with their usual statement "neighbors are concerned". "To hell with the neighbors" says me. Just kidding, but they did show up and asked what I was up too. I told them, just filming some footage for a class project and so on. I also said "I will only only be filming for another few minutes, do you want me to leave now?" He says "no no, not necessary, take your time." They did ask for an ID and so forth, punched the information in, and off they went. Some of the nicest officers I've run into. If I ever run into law enforcement in the area again, it better be with those guys! It was a good hour or so overall! I guess this would be a spotter blotter, but its also my review.
