RAF Fairford 2009

[Volusian]

Hi ... for the last 10 years or so ive been to RAF Waddington airshow and enjoyed it ... mostly shoot from the roadside of the A15 under the runway ... some good shots from there ...

This year however i wish to go to RAF Fairford. Anyone tell me the best place to shoot from outside of the event ... is there a similar vantage point that gets the top shots like the A15 roadside does at Waddy ...

Not been to Fairford before so a map link would be good of any vantage points and some pointers as where to park the car etc

thanks
