Sunrise to sunset; the small lot fills early at weekends
A paved path and grassy berm running alongside the south runway at Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International, raised just enough for an unobstructed view. Planes pass side-on and low every few minutes. Small free lot, no restrooms.
Why kids love it
A plane every few minutes holds a two-year-old's attention with no admission, no queue and no commitment, and there is open grass to run on between takeoffs.
