Best Airports..

Postby Ecko » Sun Jun 12, 2005 1:38 pm

Hey everybody! :)


I have only been playing FS2004 for about a year, and I'm not a real pilot, so I don't know of all the beatiful airports around the world. So I was wondering if you guys could give me the name of some cool airports!


What's your top3 favorite airports. (no size limit) ;D


I'm new at this site, so I'm sorry if there has already been a topic like this not so long ago. ;)

Kona, Hawaii.  Yeah, O'Hare is pretty cool too.
300,000 KM/S - Its not just a good idea, its the law.

I like the free download of Lambert St Louis from Flight1's website (if I remember correctly) since Lambert is my home airport.

Also like the freeware addon for Logan in Boston

For general aviation I like to fly around Canada and Alaska and create my own little landing strips with a lot of eye candy for those default strips that have nothing more than a place to land. And with that I use the payware Lago FSE and the Exchange module to download some creative add on buildings, vehicles, boats, ships, planes etc that people have created for it
My life is like the movie Office Space

Kai Tak (FS2004 old Hong Kong) try to land in the runaway 13.... (I have the payware version Hong Kong 2004 installed .... very good).

Rare, rare, rare, Rio Amazonas (Ecuador).

Heatrow (due to London proximity).  I love so much this town.
