flying offficer kite, at both ends of the upper level car ramp (check in/departure level) it's possible to take photos of aircraft on short final with 09 operation. On the north end there is high fence (due to gate stands just below), but if you use a 100-400 mm lens, as I did, you can get pictures of aircaft further out without any obstructions. If the wind comes from the west, you can nice take off shots - and then you don't need to worry about the fence. Be aware, at both ramp ends there are special smoking area close by - for me it wasn't that bad since I'm a smoker
