A good discone will do the job and plenty of coverage.

Re: Antenna choice
Depends on distance from airport
Sometimes it is a dipole, sometimes multi element Yagi.

Lol, in the loft...
You can put it even in the basement.
Similar results, nada.

Rubbish lemmy,
I Think you'd find a huge difference between having an antenna in the basement compared to the attic.
Good results can be had from a loft antenna, But its still no substitute for an outside antenna
