Is there a resource about panoramic views at take-off/landing?

Is there a resource about panoramic views at take-off/landing?

There are various articles and threads about certain airports which have good advice regarding the likelihood of getting a good view from certain sides of an aircraft given origin, destination and prevailing winds, e.g.

Also, some aircraft air equipped with tail cams and belly cams and you can get a good view on the IFE, e.g.

Obviously you’d need to research your airline and aircraft to see if this is a feature on your flight.

In general, whether or not you’re likely to have a view from a certain side of the aircraft depends on the general direction of the flight, the prevailing winds at the airport (for wind direction probability), actual weather on the day if you can change seats shortly before your flight, runway configuration, and air traffic control. If I were going to research this for a particular flight, I would look at:

I’m unaware of any site that does all of this and provides advice, but I would certainly bookmark it if I found it!

Alternatively, you could buy a flight simulator program and do your own fly bys!
