Hi

Does anybody have an airport map of Boston International Airport with all the runways, may be with description of good photo locations?

Thanks in advance for your help.

I use approach plates myself. Do not show the spotters locations of course, but you can mark those as you find them (or get told them)

I wish I were flying

You should try either of the following:

or

http://navigator2.maptech.com/homepage/index.cfm?scale=25000&lat=42.364348&lon=-71.005179&type=1&zoom=50&scale=25000&BPID=MAP0060030900

or

Sorry but I can't help with the photo locations since I've never shot there.

Cheers,
Felix

You can get a regular street directory for BOS and go to Bayswater st in East Boston and Point Shirley in Winthrop
e-mail me when you get here.

TAPPAN!!!

I'm in Belmont!!! A couple of my favorite places to go for Logan is that park in Winthrop that you were talking about - It's so out of the way....no one ever goes there, and it's a great place for both landings and takeoffs. Another place I like is That park... Constitution Beach? Anyway, its right off Orient Hieghts T stop (blue line), and they have benches, and girls with swimsuits. Ahhh, what could be better? (but you'd need a pretty good zoom lens to get anything good from there.

Not true ......I have been there many many times as I just lived around the corner...and Mark has been there as well and occasinonlly people just stop their car and take a look....prime location for shooting dep and arr on 27.......

BOS in general is not flooded with people interested in aviation photography at all.....and I hope it will stay that way......

This site is the best. Put in the Airport ID, and it'll give you a map.

When I was in BOS I found that the park was a little too far away, my 400mm was barely enough. Also, the light there is pretty bad until the PM hours. Something to consider.

btw- vasco, I drove right by your place ("accidentally" while scoping out places to shoot). You had a nice view!

What I meant by "no one ever goes there" was that there aren't usually very many people there, and I've never seen one with a camera (except myself). In fact, I've been there alone many times.

And you are right: I've noticed that aviation is not very big around here. I actually live about ten minutes from Hanscom.

BTW, did you ever hear why that Cape Air C-402 crashed on takeoff? I was curious about it, but I never heard what the cause was.
