WhyLanding on runway 27 means approaching from the east over the Firth of Tay, so the left side gives you a clear view down the estuary toward the Tay Road Bridge and Tay Rail Bridge, with the Fife coastline beyond. The right side mostly faces inland toward the city and the Sidlaw Hills, which is less dramatic from this approach angle.
