Our Recommendation
7.2

Left Side of the Plane

The left side provides a superior perspective of the Oklahoma City skyline and the expansive, geometric beauty of the Great Plains, especially during sunset.

Left Side Highlights
7.2
🌊

Grapevine Lake

Located immediately north of DFW, this reservoir offers a scenic water view during the initial climb.

🐍

Red River

The winding, silty-red border between Texas and Oklahoma is clearly visible from this side.

🏙️

Oklahoma City Skyline

A prime view of the Devon Tower and the urban center of Oklahoma's capital during the cruise phase.

🚜

Great Plains Agriculture

Stunning geometric patterns of center-pivot irrigation and wheat fields as the aircraft enters Kansas.

Opt for the left side on evening flights to witness the sunset across the prairie. It also offers better views of the massive wind farms located in southern Oklahoma.

Right Side Highlights
6.5
🏗️

DFW Hub

Provides a birds-eye view of the massive terminal infrastructure and cargo operations upon takeoff.

⛰️

Arbuckle Mountains

One of the oldest mountain ranges in the US, appearing as distinct geological folds in south-central Oklahoma.

🏟️

Norman & OU Campus

The Gaylord Family-Oklahoma Memorial Stadium is often visible if the flight path tracks slightly east of OKC.

💧

Lake Ray Roberts

A large, deep-blue reservoir that marks the transition from the DFW suburbs to rural North Texas.

The right side is best for morning flights to avoid direct glare. Look for the distant shimmer of Lake Texoma to the east when flying at cruising altitude.
