The hill is the small greenish strip just next to the word "jari mari road" in the Google Earth map posted by Shekar. You will have to get down at Andheri station and come to the "East" side. From there, take bus no. 332 or an auto rickshaw and come down to Jari Mari. Walk to the spot where the runway boundary wall appears (there is a Muslim cemetery opposite this spot) Take the small lane flanking the airport boundary (through the slums) and keep walking along the airport boundary wall for around 200 metres or so till you see a series of steps to go up the hill. The steps lead you to a small dargah on top of the hill. We will be able to catch the A380 landing on Runway 27 from this location. - Vivek. P.S. It would be great if some members can manage to find a different location, so that we have different angles. Pune members: There is absolutely no scope of parking your car in this area. It is quite possible that your car would be dis-assembled and its parts sold off by the time we finish our spotting session OK, I was exaggerating a bit, but the location is not safe. shekar wrote: i make my way thru the slums to this small hillock....to the right of the rwy... newys...i guess we could figure that out once we are there... ciao Back to top premshree Member Joined: 08 Apr 2007 Posts: 25 Location: Bangalore/Bombay Posted: Wed May 02, 2007 10:05 pm    Post subject: An article on HT says it'll be in Mumbai on 9th, at 16:00.
