Marseilles - (LFML/MRS) - 2011

[ScottishSpotter]

Wed 18 May

Marseilles is a good airport for photos and picking up a few bits of interest. There is a superb area for viewing which can be found by leaving the terminal and driving up the hill on the road towards Marignane. On reaching the top of the hill there is a bit of space for parking a few cars and from here there`s a great view over the airport. Driving further round in a clockwise direction and through the town of Marignane you can pull over to read off the Securite Civile aircraft and a bit further down the road any biz which are parked. The road to cargo is off the roundabout near the terminal and a quick look along here is required to read off the Westair ATP`s. A few shots from the hill area are on my flickr site.
