At Love Field there's a cul-de-sac off Lemmon that'll put you up relatively close to the runway. However, you'll need a fairly tall pick-up truck or something along those lines to put you high enough to shoot over the chain link fence.

Otherwise, there are some green space medians at the intersection of Lemmon & Mockingbird that the planes will fly right over, assuming they are taking off near the Frontiers of Flight Museum.

Anyone want to get together and go shoot the planes? Maybe a beer afterwards?
