Reviews
"One of the best places to plane-watch! ATC is piped in over speakers. Has several tables to sit at. You can always tell when a special plane is coming in, the crowd gets bigger!"
"This is one of the greatest airports to come watch airplanes land or takeoff, many big planes like the 747 and A380 fly to Dallas from international places, I saw a British Airways A380 flying from London and landing was a great view."
"This used to be one of my favorite places to bring a lawn chair and watch the planes take off/land, but not anymore. I’m not sure who thought putting up this fence was a good idea, but it’s not. Unless you’re able to stand and look over the fence, it’s not worth coming."
"Good place to be close to DFW airport landing and takeoff visuals. It also has tables and Grass landscapes where you can enjoy small family picnic viewing the sites of Airoplane takeoffs and landing. Try to avoid cloudy days which might block the Airoplane views. The binoculars although free, none of them working now and needs some maintenance."
"This is a great spot to have a close up of airplanes landing and taking off. There are a few picnic tables and there is a field for you to bring a blanket or chairs. Great spot to maybe grab some sun sandwiches and have a picnic date."
