This airport has an "official"
observation area located next to the cargo terminals on the west side of the
field. Its easily accessible, safe, and free but A major
drawback of this spot is lack of traffic. On a typical day Nashville
uses all 4 of its runways but only traffic on 2L/20R is close to the
observation area. You can see the entire airport though.
There is another spot on the
east side which is the parking lot between the Airport Police Dept. and the
U.S. Mail facility but again, you'll only see one of the 4 runways (20L/2R).
Sometimes you might get a hassle from the police here too.
Traffic at Nashville is mostly 737, MD80, and Regional
Jets and the largest airline is Southwest.
I would have to give Nashville an overall score of 3
jets. There's not too much variety of traffic but at least they have a
designated area for plane spotters and the airport police are generally
friendly.
