Sydney Airport - Observation Deck Closure

[Tony G]

Thanks for the info all. Great news on the rydges option. Zurich looks like a spotters paradise, hope to get there some day.

Thanks for sharing the memories Grahame. Yes the observation deck did run the whole length of the terminal. It was also two levels. I was quite young the last time I was there so I cannot remember if both levels went the whole length. I don't think the bottom level did. I think there was also a small fee and a number of telescopes you could use.

The east-west terminal ( near the old control tower) was probably one of the best locations from memory (before the third runway). If you had a decent size lens you basically had access to every movement. The best part is you had Fokker 27s, 50s etc parked right under your nose.
