Now that should be a great show although I guess you'll be shooting into sun if you are 'on-base'.

Edit.... Although possibly not shooting into sun - look at these sets from the four days in 2004.

I don't recall shooting into the sun from 2004. In fact if you look at Google maps, I do remember walking underneath that highway, so that confirms you're southeast of the runway.

Combining the map in the Air '04 program and scramble's airfield guide, if they don't change things from that time, the 05 treshold of the runway is on your left-hand side if you are facing the runway from the public area. (Actually I can't see having the public at the other side of the runway happening, due to a lack of space.)
A weather forecast is a forecast and just that
