  • Runway Usage

    Is there any way to find out which runways are in use at a particular airport. What I'm basically asking is, I want to go spotting at Newark, but it's conditional on the fact that they are using 22R/L. Is there any way I can find out beforehand if those are the runways in use for that particular day?

          Hey Dylan, This is a nice link. I am wondering if the flight information (Aircraft type/Altitude) data is connected via the airport's system. ? I mean watching the movement, I can see the update as the plane is either climbing or descending .. Thanks for the link btw. Interesting !

          How's the view if you are standing under the approach path at New jersey Tpke ??? is that right ?

            I dont know what it looks like because of all the cops I only spotted in the ikea parking lot where i could hide between cars and even there i would get kicked out.

              Many thanks for the info. 744. Yeah, thats why I mentioned the altitude and type, coz i have only seen once 1nce where the flight number box was filled. Btw the passur link. I learned something today thanks to you.

              Stupid cops, kicking you out is one of the worst thing that could happen to a spotter, before getting arrested that is.

                    FlyteComm .. It's not 100% accurate, but close enough
