Cad West offers something rare at the Mach Loop: the possibility of a genuine level-pass view, where aircraft pass almost at eye level rather than below. Depending on position on the hill, you can achieve a topside shot or a flat-on profile view.
Aircraft approach from your left. If you are fortunate, they will bank left into Corris Corner after passing — potentially giving a second viewing opportunity on the same sortie.
