Just do like Wayne and Garth did, layout on the hood of your car right at the end of the runway fence.........

And no, I have been to airports throughout my life, and I never thought of them as entertainment. Lines everywhere, everyone in a hurry. It's not relaxing to me.

Hmm, the people aren't the attraction for me, it's the magic of flight. Watching a bloated monstrosity like a 747 acclerate down the runway, and suddenly break free of the bonds of Earth... Wow.

They just built a new terminal at Detroit Metro, and there are (I swear!) radio ads for the new terminal. Too bad no one can go more than a few steps into it without a ticket to somewhere...

If you just want to see them taking off, there are plenty of places around the airport to watch. I know several lower class neighborhoods that could live the rest of their lives without seeing and hearing another plane take off.
