Just South of runway 8R/26R of München's airport. Very close to the little hill that is used by spotters to look at traffic on the runway and on some of the taxiways and parts of the terminal area.

Participants

zb. Anyone else?

Omega. It'll be my first geohash since I've read the comic yesterday evening. =P

Plans

zb will wear warm socks and will try to get there by bike from his home in München. ETA likely between 2:00 or 2:30 pm, but this is a rough guess. (Esitimated, likely, guess: how vague can it get?) --Zb 10:39, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

Omega will go by car, no unneeded risks on my first try. I was planning on being there by 4 p.m. but I'll pack my things and go within the next two hours (by 2 p.m.) and help Zb find the spot with some GPS. ^^

Expedition

No GPS, so I need to memorize this: On a field, W of the 13th tree along the street from the airport; 1/3 into the field. And off I go. --Zb 10:39, 26 December 2009 (UTC)

The no-batteries-just-landmarks approach would have worked, as was confirmed by Omega's GPS. He had put a marker into the spot just some minutes before I got there. -> Success! And even a meet-up! Yay.
