Best sideRight
WhyLanding on runway 09 means flying eastward into the Baia Mare basin, and the city itself sits just south of the extended centerline, so it unfolds on the right side along with the Gutâi Mountains rising beyond it. The left side mostly shows the flatter countryside toward the Igniș Mountains, which stay more distant and less dramatic during the approach.
