VOR (VHF Omni-Directional Radio Range Beacon) As it is facing south, the best time for taking pictures is in the late afternoons.As of the end of July, 2019 Main facilities They say it is not allowed, but from other's experience the Airport Operations Department does not have a problem with people photographing at this location. The down side is that - aside from the parking fee - you can expect to be approached by a security guard if you are taking pictures. If traffic is operating to the east, planes will be taxiing to runway 9L and will pass directly in front of the garage. Good overview of runways 9L/27R and 9R/27L and part of the concourses. Many people watch the traffic from the roof of the South Parking Garage (4th level).

For 737s almost a full 300 mm is needed and for a 777 it's about 220 mm. The sun is good for photography pretty much the whole day, but in summer until about 5 or 6 p.m. It offers a good view of traffic departing from runway 27L. A CRJ requires about 400 mm on the far taxiway.Īnother spot is the parking lot of the Ruby Tuesday restaurant, with the entrance at Sullivan Road. This is only possible in south eastern direction otherwise the fence will be in the way. You can take photos of taxiing aircraft here from about noon until sunset. Although partly obstructed by bushes, most aircraft landing or taking off on runway 9R/27L can also be read, as are some aircraft at the terminal. Any aircraft landing on runway 10/28 will have to pass this spot, so you will not miss any of them. The taxiways are right in front of you, with the fence descending to the tunnel. The Airport Loop Road dead ends at the taxiways to and from this runway. With the opening of runway 10/28 some roads south of the airport have been cut off. Photography of traffic can be done nearly all day. This spot gives you a good view of traffic landing to the west (runway 27L) or taking off to the east (runway 9R). This spot is at the entrance to a sewage treatment plant on Lake Mirror Road, just off the I-285 service road. Photos are difficult to take, with the sun facing you most of the day, and a fence and handling equipment hampering you. The parking lots of Mercury Air Center and some small cargo buildings off Toffie Terrace allow part of the cargo aircraft and bizjets/props to be read. Photography is possible with 200-400 mm on the north western most runway, but as you are facing south most of the day, you would better pick an overcast day. Rooms 10 are confirmed as having great views. The rooms form the sixth floor and up with balconies look out over runways 8L/26R and 8R/26L and the concourses. Probably the best spot of all for logging is the Renaissance Concourse Hotel in the northern part of the airport. In the meantime the Atlanta City Council voted to change the name to the current Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport, in honour of former mayor Maynard Jackson, who died in June 2003. With this runway simultaneous approaches on three runways can be performed, ensuring the top ranking of Atlanta. In May 2001, construction of a 2,700 m fifth runway (10–28) began.
Hartsfield Atlanta International Airport opened on 21 September 21 1980. Named for former Atlanta mayor William Berry Hartsfield, who did much to promote air travel, William B. In 1977 the construction of the four runways and mid-field terminal started. The development to its current size really began in the late 1970s under the administration of Mayor Maynard Jackson. After World War II, and thus a brief military period, The airport became known as Atlanta Municipal Airport. The airport has its roots in the 1920s, and was named Candler Field. There are relatively few foreign carriers when compared to for example JFK, LAX or Miami. The majority of this traffic comes from two major carriers having a hub here: Delta Air Lines (including feeder airlines) and airTran Airways, but all major US carriers fly to Atlanta. In 2010 more than 89 million passengers travelled through Atlanta, resulting in more than 950,000 landings and take-offs. Hartsfield–Jackson Atlanta International Airport is the busiest airport in the world with regard to commercial aircraft movements and with regard to the number of passengers.
