    Burlington KBTV Spotting guide

    I can't find any :-(. And I already know about the old control tower :-)

    Daniel, I see a link on NEAIRPORTS.COM but it is blank :-(

    Thanks...

    Sir, back in the early 90's, i was able to spot from National Guard Ave just outside the northeast section of the airport (see map, white circle). Not sure of the situation today. Further down this road, the VT ANG also has a static display of aircraft they used over the years (also great view of the runway). You may want to call the 158th FW public relations and ask about visiting the displays, or you could just drive up to the front gate and ask. Good luck!

    Thanks sir...

    I should have guessed you would know :-) I forgot you used to frequent Burlington. I never made it as the weather did not cooperate and figured it would be a waste of time going in white out snow :-(

    Next time i go up I will take your advise :-)

    Hey Manny,

    We haven't written a BTV guide yet because I haven't actually done any spotting up there, nor has any Vermonter provided tips to us. I do know they have an in-terminal observation deck and their parking garage gives a decent view. Wish I could be more help on this!

    Thanks Daniel,

    I ditched anyway because weather was terrible. But I would have gladly contributed if I had gone :-) Maybe we all can make a special guide scouting trip up there!! As per Woz, they may get F-35s...
