8 Wing Trenton Runway (West End)
The west end runway approach at 8 Wing Trenton is a perfect roadside spot for watching and photographing aircraft. Located along Highway 2 near CFB Trenton, this area lines up directly with the runway approach, where a series of light towers leads your view straight toward incoming planes. Parking is available at Bain Park, and right across the street is a public grass field that allows you to move around and line up different angles between the towers. The straight alignment creates strong leading lines, especially as aircraft descend toward the runway. Timing your visit around departures/arrivals increases your chances of capturing planes at low altitude, with evening light often adding a bit more depth to the scene. (Quinte West, Ontario, Canada)
