    Hey all, I was thinking of taking a spin down to Waterford airport this weekend. Does anybody know of any good places to watch arrivals and departures? Id like attempt to take some shots of ATR's just touching down too.
    I know you can view through the fence beside the terminal building but is there anywhere else around the airport perimeter? Also, what would be the busiest time for air traffic there.

    If 21 is in use there is plenty of opportunity to watch arrivals. There's lots of room to pull in and park on the main road into Waterford from the airport about 1KM on the city side will place you near/under the approach path.

    You could also go introduce yourself at the Aero Club. They have a nice upstairs balcony where you will clearly be able to see the touchdowns and takeoffs.
