This article by SpottersWiki is cool but is not accurate in some respects.
USG is acceptable. Balmoral is OK as long as you do the article says. Allstate Arena is OK if they are OK with you...

We often act as escorts for out-of-towners. I am sometimes busy but I am sure you will find at least one of our 100+ members to go with you.

The reason it's "join or don't spot" in most cases is due to the lack of public property to spot from. If you want to go hang out on a sliver of public property here on the south-side of ORD and see...

Study up on locations to planespot at Chicago O'Hare and then come back after you've done your homework. ORD is not your typical international airport. I've been spotting for 17+ years all around the...

1) ORD is surrounded by private property... there are exceptions but they aren't where you want to take pictures from. Using it without permission is trespassing.

2) Crime and Chicago go hand in...

Planespotting at ORD is legal and requires nothing more than at any other airport as long as you stay on the existing slivers of public property around the airport. As for the 4th picture? Remember....

The orange vests are overkill if on public property. Also, yes, we are allowed access to ramps sometimes and I have even been on spotting bus tours with the group at Chicago O'Hare as a civilian...

ORD Airport Watch members are NOT allowed to disobey public signage. We are allowed to go lots of places that non-members are not because of arranged approval. Members are informed of new locations...

I have been very busy and wasn't aware that this thread was going so I was just informed of it today and read thru all the posts to catch up. That being said i had some thoughts.

The rules at ORD...

That is correct.

There are some public areas around Chicago O'Hare where there is no need for you to be wearing an I.D. However, O'Hare is pretty much surrounded by private property which makes spotting difficult at...

You need to be a member of ORD Airport Watch only if you want to do planespotting at a privately-owned location where ownership only allows spotting on the premises of their property if you are a...

O.K. Thanks. Knew it would be soon. But unlike you guys I can't follow the latest 24/7. :D I figured someone would know. Just found the pictures and stuff on twitter.

Great photos! Does anyone know if AAL is planning on adding a touch or two to represent AWE paint features if there is a merger? Or will the Cactus paint features go away completely? USAirways...

Contrails Spotting! I filmed all of these with a Sony HX200V (no tripod used).

Here's some of my work! Thanks for watching!

It would be nice to see the Yemeni 747SP....
I already have a video of the AirHorse1 727 but that would be fun to get again.

Also, would be nice if Malaysian would bring back the Hibiscus...
