Hoogeveen

1Main entrance

The airfield entrance lies in the corner of the Parmentierstraat and Lindberghstraat. Here, you will find the parachuting centre, several maintenance companies, the restaurant and the airfield authorities.

2Hangars

The older, and partly genuine historic, hangars are lined up here. Some of them are home to locally-based historic aircraft. Please ask for permission before going here or taking photos.

3Threshold 09

For a different view on the flying activities, with the sun from behind, try this spot. From the roundabout where Edisonstraat, Galileïlaan and Stephensonstraat meet, enter the latter and then take first left, into the industrial estate. A track along the ditch puts you right on the edge of the airfield, near the glider's starting point and abeam the western runway threshold. Most landing aircraft however are still quite high at this point, making it less interesting for photography.

4Vliegveldweg

By Spring 2012, the new Vliegveldweg along the southern perimeter had been opened, providing another spot at Hoogeveen. Viewing is excellent from this side of the field. Photography is influenced in terms of background by the hangars on the opposite side, but the light is favourable most of the day.
