Gavin Andrew David 6 Report post Posted August 13, 2005 alright . here's the explanation . the 'Pusat Kaji Cuaca' is your safest bet I guess , But if police do come , then you have to leave If 32L is used for arrival , you can proceed to the end of the runway , there's a place to park your car and you can get some nice shots over there if 32R / 14L is in use , you can go to observation hill . but that place is off limits , and police will chase you away if you're spotted there to get to that Pusat Kaji Cuaca ( Weather Station ) , follow the sign that says KOMPLEKS BUNGA RAYA . Follow that road until you reach the guard house . Look to your right , and you will see a road with a sign . Kenderaan Yang Dibenarkan Sahaja . Follow that road . Continue on and soon you will see Runway 14R on your left . Just follow that road and you will see a blue sign stating ( PUSAT KAJI CUACA ) and pointing to your RIGHT >> Turn right and follow that road . It will bring you to the weather station . Park outside the weather station Under the lamp posts or something Like this Cross the drain that should be on your left if you're facing the weather station and just walk straight in Soon , you should be at a position thats elevated enough to take some shots . You can go further down depending on what kind of shots you're after . :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::; This info was posted in another topic already Hope you enjoy your spotting If you have any other questions , do not hesitate to ask Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

T Azahan 1 Report post Posted August 21, 2005 not sure delwin since you dont have transport. the lease you can do is hop on the inn shuttle to main terminal and spot at the terrace. remember to take a small tower from your room to wipe the terrace window. it gets dirty most of the times by the kids.
