What is your favourite airport?

Postby Erhan » Thu May 08, 2003 3:26 am

Mine would probably have to be PHNL (Honolulu) because of its scenery and clear blue waters  8)

???

As I picked up so many new ones during my monster fast cable US download session (see list in thread 'large downloads') I don't know until I install em all and give em a try.

But I have to rate ZSHC which I mentioned the other day as being a real milestone in airport design (the designer may not know it yet!) which points the way for airport design in the future

LOWW in Vienna, and the Beirut seneries are some of the best.  I noticed just yesterday at LOWW that at the gate there are stop signs that actually work.  Pretty cool stuff....

I love the one at Kathmandu in Nepal. It's in an unbelievable altitude and right North of it... the Hymalayas with the mount Everest... beautifull.

I think Las Vegas Int'l is pretty cool at night as well as Washington National (I refuse to call it Reagan National seeing he did fire all ATC while President and now they name a airport after him - What a Joke) Coming from the Boston MA area, Logan Int'l is interesting for me as well.

Toronto City Center is pretty interesting, and although very similar to Meigs, it has more runway options and has three more local strips to visit within a few minutes flight.....Buttonville, Downsview, and Tor Intl(Pearson)

I have to say all of the ones in Nepal, my being here and all, but I also like Paro in Bhutan.

Hmm tough. I like San Fransisco Int. especially as when I'm flying with Fozzer we have to start there.
City of London is good (I've got loads of add-ons there), my local field in Pecs, Hungary is nice since I got a terrain mesh and stuff for it.
For nasty I love LAKO in Albania, its a nightmate once you've got the terrain mesh on it! Otherwise I'm sometimes in Australia at airfields I used to frequent as a kid, sometimes in Canada, and New York/Chicago (same reasons). Anywhere I can get low and scary makes me happy.

I prefer KPHX (Phoenix, AZ).  I really like the day and night aproaches.  Though my home base is KABQ (Albuquerque, New Mexico) Sun Port, and I chose it, asthetically speaking, Phoenix has it all over my Southern US routes.

Hey condered, I just went to LOWW and can't find what you mean by the stopsigns at the gates. There are no gates! ???

I think as far as default scenery is concerned, LHR and LAX are two of my favourites. Must try a direct flight between em soon.... Did it once in real life with a United 777
