Zurich - ZRH!
.........Switzerland is not located on an island
Correct or correct?

........but there are some who might suggest it should be !!

Sorry Gerardo.........the voices again

[Petertenthije]

........but there are some who might suggest it should be !!

But it is! It's an island of sanity in the ocean of madness that´s the EU.

^^^
You do have a point there. Thank God we Brits didn't go into the Euro currency. I remember how we got turned over with decimalisation.

But back to the topic.....
The burning question is...is Gerardo correct with Zurich ?

[FRA/ARNspotter]

Haha good one there

Sorry Gerardo, not Zurich either even though i have to admit you had some good evidence there

Next hint:

The airport is only 14 metres over sea level!
By plane the airport is exactly 1362 km ( 846,5 miles) away from Sheffield and 1197 km (743 miles) from Frankfurt

Are you sure?

Just in case it really isn't Zurich , could it be Stockholm?

[brianw999]

I'm going to break the habit of a lifetime Geri and be nice before jumping in....

....which airport in Stockholm ?

[LX-A343]

I just know Arlanda, so ... Arlanda it is?

[brianw999]

Arlanda is too high but at 14m amsl with a photographers hump overlooking the runway and about the right mileages.......

.......Stockholm Bromma Airport would just about fit the bill ?

If I'm right Gerardo you take the next go. We need some new blood in this thread.

[LX-A343]

FRA/ARNspotter: is that OK?

Brian: I can gladly continue, but be warned, I'll be away for a week with limited internet access. If that's still OK, then I'll start a new one.

[FRA/ARNspotter]

Brian is right with Stockholm-Bromma!

Next one for you

[LX-A343]

OK, as suggested by Brian, there we go.

First hints:
- European airport with one runway
- Mostly national flights. International Operations: 1 scheduled flight, some charters and some military
- Airport is to be closed in the near future
- Was founded as military airport during WWII
- largest carrier here has a "color mismatch"

[FRA/ARNspotter]

Sounds like Plymouth (UK) Airport to me!

[LX-A343]

I wonder, why you mention "Plymouth" ...

Anyway, wrong country!
