Germany Landing approach, Cologne Airport

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

This spot is located in the Wahner Heide in the middle of the approach lighting of the crosswind runway of Cologne Airport. At this runway, depending on the wind direction, planes come very low over you to land. Very exciting, in my opinion. At this point, I recommend for such shots a super wide-angleobjekitv or a full-frame fisheye.

Photography Tips

As described above, it is best to use a wide angle or fisheye, because the planes fly very close over you. Attention! Planes do not always land above this runway, so it is best to check beforehand whether this runway is also approached.
