Hey -

Days? Please. Paris is a great town - sans spotting. I could use a few days there. Hell, USD385.00 return!!!

I've been at CDG once. There was a very good spotting place, but I do not know where it exactly is (we were just put there by touring-bus). It's a small grass field close the the taxiway, between the runways. You don't need a ladder there if you stay until 2 o'clock. You even can get all planes with a 35-70mm lens! After 2 o'clock, the sun is standing bad, and you have to go to the other side, where there is a fence of about 2.50 meters high.

Wow? Spotting? CDG? Ha! I flew ATL-CDG-BOM in June and back in August. The only and I mean ONLY things I saw was EUROWHITE Air France, A few Deltas, and the constant T-tail Alitalia. Nothing else. We were in Hall 2C, I believe... is that not where the best things to see are?

Try a SPOTTING site I found by accident. It is "www.spottersunited.com" clap.gif

Look at "Spotting Guide" or "Spotters Help". nod.gif

Of course, updates from people are better! smilewink.gif

Cheers! images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

obviously not. There are some very interesting planes there. Take a look at my site, and you'll find a few one.
