Tower (ie, control tower) - the holy of holies at any airport. This is where the work is carried out managers who make decisions on takeoff and landing. In addition, it is the highest place at the airport where the whole territory is visible, at a glance!

And not only the territory of the airport ... Custom angles are really atypical ... for most people! ..



To get there - the whole event to give permission to make copies of the passport, inspection and escort required at different stages of access to the holy of holies of any airport. Even hitting the tower itself, is inside and even more so to take the work of managers - is prohibited.

But you can and should walk on the balcony around, enjoy the views of the airfield and take ... Aircraft !!!

Domodedovo - my favorite airport ... And I know it from different sides ... I have repeatedly flew away from here and come here, and international flights and domestic, accompanied and met ... and even had time to visit on the platform ... but only at the moment when I got to the tower puzzle seemed to piece together from disparate pieces. And I saw this mechanism is entirely ... in action! Picture converged ... and captured the imagination!
