I am planning to see the arrival of AK KC-135's next monday the 31st.
Can somenone please give me the best location to get a picture of the landing aircraft, weather forecast says it will be an eastern wind with a force of 3. So not very spectacular, but i was wondering what the best place is to stand ?
Duth or German side ? hope to hear from you experts.

Just check "Airfield Guide" on this very site.

Hey Emil,

I can't help you with Norvenich but I know that Geilenkirchen start flying at 08.00hrs sharp.
Be there at 08.00hrs and you will see a few big ones go take off!!

From the german side from the field you have a good view at the action and you can see the tankers!!

Have fun
