Should be a good few days at GLA aircraft and pax wise, hopefully some
interesting ones, EDI might even get some overspill,

There is a lay-by at the 23 end on the A8, but unfortunately it's looking
into sun if the a/c are landing on 23, best bet is to park in the lay-by and
walk back to the bridge over the River Cart, there you'll get some shots
with the sun behind you. If 05 is in use head up to the road just past the
new Loganair hangar and park next to the football pitch, there is an area of
waste ground there with various mounds to give a bit of height, also there
is easy access to the fence abeam the 05 holding point, seen various pics
over at -
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/scottishairfieldaircraftpics or a guy called
Fred Seggie has a site with pics from around the GLA perimeter, one piece of
advice, the Yonderton Farm Road on the north side is ok for parking but is
south facing, no good if it's sunny,

According to the Sunday Mail, 11/05, there are 147 flights due into
Seville on the day of the game from Scotland, the Spanish are saying
that they will not be able to cope with that volume of traffic. It is
now safe to assume,that Gla, Pik and Edi are all going to be very
busy!
