Our Recommendation
7.8

Right Side of the Plane

The Right Side provides a superior vantage point for the dramatic Caprock Escarpment and more iconic landmarks of the DFW metroplex including Fort Worth's skyline and major sports stadiums.

Right Side Highlights
7.8
⛰️

Caprock Escarpment

The rugged transition zone where the high plains drop off into the rolling red-dirt prairies.

💧

Possum Kingdom Lake

Look for the distinctive 'Hell's Gate' cliffs on this winding Brazos River reservoir.

🏟️

Arlington Stadiums

Clear views of AT&T Stadium and Globe Life Field are common during southern approach patterns.

🏙️

Fort Worth Skyline

Excellent views of the downtown skyscrapers and the nearby historic Stockyards district.

The right side is best for morning flights as the sun illuminates the red hues of the Caprock cliffs. Watch for the sudden change in terrain about 30 minutes into the flight. On final approach, look south to see the massive Dallas-Fort Worth sprawl.

Left Side Highlights
6.5
🌵

Llano Estacado

View the immense, flat plateau of the Staked Plains stretching toward the horizon.

🏙️

Lubbock Aerials

Spot the sprawling grid of the 'Hub City' and Texas Tech University to the north.

🌊

Lewisville Lake

A massive recreational reservoir that marks the entry into the northern DFW suburbs.

Sit on the left for afternoon flights to avoid direct southern sun glare. This side is ideal for spotting the vast network of circular center-pivot irrigation fields that dominate the West Texas landscape.
