Michigan's BUSIEST Airport - Incredible Plane Spotting in Detroit (DTW/KDTW)

Any Delta fans? This is the video for you!
Detroit Metro International Airport is Delta's 2nd largest hub after Atlanta. The airport serves the greater Detroit region and is 1 of only 2 airports in Michigan that serve over 1 million passengers. in 2023, Detroit served 31 million passengers!
Detroit isn't that spotter friendly as the only "official" spots are at parking garages however they do offer great views of the airfield. DTW is a great airport to spot at when Willow run is quiet. Delta does have a very unique fleet which makes spotting interesting.

I'm "Old School!" I used to love watching planes at Metro back in the 1970's. They had an awesome observation deck above the Delta and TWA Concourse back then. You were literally right above Delta's Gate 22. You could look down and right into the cockpit of the aircraft parked at that gate. I remember evenings when Delta would often park DC-8-60's and DC-8-50's at that gate. This was back in the days of cheap fuel when they would often start the engines before pushback. Listening to the DC-8's howl like Wolves when they'd spin up was exciting.

First plane that we spoted was my favrote🎉🎉🎉

[kirkzevola]

Sick catches of Delta’s B717-200’s up in The Great Lake State. Love me some Angry Puppies. My number one favorite aircraft type.

[gregmctevia]

You’re really good, man. I believe you are Detroit’s premier plane spotter.

[kurtboginski]

Outstanding video work. That one shot of the Delta A300 with Detroit Ren Cen in the background makes it look like downtown is just around the corner. Enjoy your work.

[marcbyrnes]

Excellent video, appreciate the O/ D info and the crew tower ATC communications

[johnniec]

i love when the flight patterns take off to the north, Many of the Planes Come right over my house also when they are landing heading in southbound , Seeing those a350s and their size at a low level is awesome, , i think one day i might set up my tripod in my yard and Do a video of them flying over, , :)

Opens to a sea of Delta aircraft. Superbly filmed 😊 and loved the Boeing 717.

[mcraft]

I’d love to see the take offs a little longer. Fade away too soon!

Not surprising DTW is a major Delta hub as it was built for Northwest to be a second hub along with MSP. Both were absorbed by the merger with MSP retaining it's place as Best Mega Airport.

[ronduncan]

Great video! You should put flight times!

[macerface]

Were you up on the ramp the entire time? Was just there yesterday trying to spot and there really is no good place. Any suggestions are appreciated!

[Kot.]

hi where's a good spot to planespot here?

[Greg_P]

Where’s a good spot to watch this close?

[henrytischbein]

Does the nw in the delta tail number mean it was a northwest plane

[luisalbertomontero]

Which one is the 1st Delta's Hub?
