Remarks: This great location at East Midlands is just under the Runway 27 approach line making it perfect for shots from about 5pm onwards. As is expertly demonstrated by another photographer. However for people who just to have a ride out on a nice summer evening, this spot has several picnic tables making it nice to bring the family with a few sandwiches and a flash of tea. It is also best to park here when planning to visit the mound, which can be found by following the distant fence round the airport perimeter.. Cordinates - N52.831201 E1.295893
