    It's great to see the observation deck has opened again in Zurich and the airport offer many cool behind the scenes tours to the public. ZRH Airport set a great example for many other airports to follow in developing general public's interest in aviation. Hope to see ZRH in better times ahead!

    To see the edelweiss flowers in their natural environment, you need to go quite high up in the Alps, above the forest line and below the bare rock line, approx 1800-2500m high. At least in the Alps they can be found pretty much everywhere, don't know about the other mountain ranges.

    Great vid! Sam this reminds of Amarillo, Texas in the states. I taught school there for many years and it’s flat and wide open and easy to see the planes take off and land. Bell Helicopter builds the Osprey tiltrotor aircraft there too, so those fly around as well. Lastly Amarillo’s a location where some airlines, charter, and cargo planes get painted! Yes painted...they pull them into a big hanger and they get the new paint job!

It was a late flight, but I've never seen that terminal as empty as it was in your video. I miss flying and hope we can travel again soon, I'll never complain about being stuck in Terminal E of Zurich for 7 hours ever again.

      Truth is you don't get to stand there for so long, only like 15 min. You have to take a bus tour which is about an hour, and 45 min you drive around they show you planes firefighters runways and so on, and then at the end you get out for those 15 min. If youre a spotter you can time that to for example catch the one a380 that takes off :) . I'm not sure if there is prolongued tours for photographers.

    Meanwhile in Belgrade, Serbia, the airport security or the police will either chase you away or maybe even arrest you and keep you locked in overnight if they see you filming and taking photos of the planes anywhere around the airport. As an aviation enthusiast, that gives me one more reason to stay in love with Zürich.

    Same here in Phoenix. Dropped off my brother in law a few months ago and Sky Harbor was practically deserted. It was like some kind of bizzare, post-apocalyptic feeling until you see one random flight attendant running from one end of the hallway to the other or only two people traveling together walking to their terminal. I think the only in airport business that was open was the Starbucks. Very eerie and sad.

All those trips started at LAX. That airport is connected to me. The first plane I ever flew was an ELAL Israel airlines, on a 777-200ER when I was 4 weeks old. It’s true. The only 747s I flew were and British airways and I got to sit in the cockpit. I’ve sat in the cockpit of so many planes you can’t even imagine.
