Great shots Rafal! I love that place. They keep moving that EAEX Jetstream fuselage all over the place! Did you eat in the cafe? Good food!

That little place is great. Good food, great nostaligia and if your lucky and something is taking off or landing you see that too!

One of the best little airports in the world!

Hi,

do they offer tours on the ramp or how did you shoot through the holes ?

Don't really need a tour. When I go there is nobody there anyway. Just bring a good step ladder and most aircraft is right in front of you. When you are near the two Tristars they are real close to the fence.

When you go to the other side the fence is lower in some spots and you can easily shoot over or near the gates there are big gaps. I shot this there.

There was a guy who was trying to get us on the ramp when he found out that we are photogs, but unfortunately he couldn't find the damn key to the gate. He was the owner of C-123 Provider.
I can see that below your TWA L1011 Do-328s are sticking. They are not there anymore. They were moved to the other part of the airport. Also that MD-87 is gone :( it was scrapped :(
