Hi Micheil

Thanks for the "heads up" about Zurich airport. But where do I type "spotter" to get the rego details ?

And have you seen what Bristol airport in the UK displays at :

http://apron.bristolairport.com/apronStands/

Details of flight number, airline, aircraft type, rego and parking bay.

Cheers and good spotting

Bob

The tarmac tours were privately run. Maybe one day they'll run again.

A mobile version of the website would be nice, so that while you're out beside the runways you can access rego/times information.

Of course a mobile version would be nice for everyone, so when you're on the train or in the taxi you can easily look up times. No-one with a smart phone is going to pay $1.50 for the SMS service.

In response to the suggestions starting to flow from here and no doubt other sources, Sydney Airport have created an email address for you guys to float your ideas on what you'd like to see on a spotters/enthusiasts page. You can also submit images for the web page if you wish, and for those with copyright concerns, some early discussions regarding protecting published images have begun.


yssy.planespotter@syd.com.au


Obviously all the ideas can't be implemented all at once, but they're planning to make your ideas a reality. You guys, as the regular travelling, spotting enthusiasts know what information you want to see before and when you go to the airport, so here's your chance to let the airport know what would make your visits even better!

*BUMP*

Just an update to this thread, the spotters page is apparently about 99.9% ready for launch. I'll post here when it does go live if I'm at work , otherwise I'm sure one of you will see it first!

Also, Sydney Airport has launched it own free iPhone app recently, with up to date flight information and other terminal info.

Sorry, I can't answer that one. I only found out about the iPhone app yesterday when I was with some people from the corporate section, and the Sydney Airport website only mentions iPhone.
