When landing at Adak (ADK), sit on the Left side for the best views. On the typical approach to runway 05 (landing to the northeast), the aircraft tracks up from the southwest over Adak Island's rugged terrain. Passengers on the left side get a good view of Mount Moffett's volcanic cone and the barren, tundra-covered ridges of the island's interior before touchdown near Kuluk Bay. Notable sights include: Mount Moffett (volcanic peak), Adak Island's treeless mountain ridges, Kuluk Bay ahead of the runway, scattered remnants of the old naval station.
