Aerial view of the massive corporate headquarters and urban sprawl of the Northwest Arkansas region.
University of Arkansas
Look for the Razorback Stadium and the hilltop campus in Fayetteville as you cruise south.
Table Rock Lake

Lake Ray Roberts
A prominent landmark for pilots marking the final approach into the North Texas region.
DFW Airport Layout
A spectacular view of one of the world's largest airports, including its seven runways and five terminals.
The right side is ideal for afternoon flights as the sun will be on the opposite side of the aircraft. Keep your camera ready during the descent; you will often fly directly over Grapevine Lake, providing a perfect backdrop for the DFW airport complex. During clear winter days, the terrain of the Ozark foothills is much more visible through the bare trees.
