Review:
The RDU Observation Park is a public space where visitors can watch planes land and take off from Raleigh-Durham International Airport's 10,000-foot runway and listen to piped-in pilot-tower communications from the nearby Air Traffic Control Center via audio speakers on an elevated observation platform.
The park also features a play area for children, a casual café in the General Aviation Terminal called the Crosswinds Café, grassy lawns for picnicking, educational placards, modern restrooms, and free parking.
The RDU Observation Park also hosts birthday parties and other special celebrations, and the park is open from sunrise to sunset every day.
