Quoting Giancavia (Reply 2): Thanks for that. Yeah i was thinking schipol. Dont suppose you know if the panorama terrace is open in winter?
If your planning on flying to AMS just stay airside! The possibilities for photo's are endless then! I always stay airside when I visit AMS as your closer to the action especially up on the end of "D" pier! Also those layed back leather chairs are great for relaxing on between photo's!

If you happen to come to FRA, its worth a day too. I would say second interesting airport in Europe after Heathrow. The Terrace is closed in Winter, but from the large windows behind it you can see every landing aircraft if wind is from West.

I've been to both ZRH and AMS, both in Winter and I would say Zurich is probably the best although seeing those MD11's upclose at AMS is quite special.
ZRH gave really good views but if the aircraft are landing on rwy 14 you don't get to see much.
When I was there Take-offs were on rwys 28 and 16. We took the airport tour which takes you to a spotting area right next to rwy 16 and this allows very good photo opportunities of aircraft taking off. We managed to see an SQ 772 when we there.
