Name that Airport

[brianw999]

Nope, but the country is correct .

The blue winking smiley intrigues me. Possibly not mainland USA ?

....and...

Okay, all runways are parallel, and you need only one hand to count them all.

Do these parallell runways all have the same heading ?

And finally, when you say concrete runways do you mean that specifically or are you generalising a hard surface ?

The blue smiley has no meaning.

Do these parallell runways all have the same heading ?

Technically, yes, but their runway numbers aren't all the same.

And finally, when you say concrete runways do you mean that specifically or are you generalising a hard surface ?

Just a hard surface in general, aka now grass or water runways.

[brianw999]

OK then. It still leaves a hell of a lot of choices so...

Is this an International airport ?

[DAL767-400ER]

Oh hell yeah!

[brianw999]

Can't find a reference to an original triangular layout but given thatone pair of its 4 runways have slightly different headings I'll take a stab at LAX Los Angeles International ?

[DAL767-400ER]

Completely wrong part of the country. Sanford was somewhat close, albeit not close enough.

[brianw999]

I think that your screenname has something to do with this airport.

DAL = Delta Airlines.

Q. Is this an International airport ?
A. Hell, yeah.

...Intimating that it's a BIG one !
with a Delta airlines connection ?

....which used to have a triangular runway pattern, only one of which is used now and, although the current runways are parallel a couple have a different heading.
Runways where I think it is are....

8L/26R	9,000	2,743	Concrete
8R/26L	10,000	3,048	Concrete
9L/27R	11,890	3,624	Concrete
9R/27L	9,000	2,743	Concrete
10/28	9,000	2,743	Concrete

...need only the fingers of one hand to count the runways...

..and you said concrete runways first off...

So I'm going to say Delta's hub,

Hartsfield Jackson ( Atlanta International )

[DAL767-400ER]

Yup, 100% correct .

Would've loved to provide a photo of the old layout of ATL, but unfortunately the awesome site that used to host plenty of old airport pics comes back as a darn GeoCities page .

So, this'll have to do:

Though this is already when construction for the new terminal was underway and the first new parallel runway was built, you can still see the original 08/26 running across the middle of the picture and the two crossing runways from middle left to upper right and in the upper right corner, going through where Concourse E sits today.

OK, here we go again.....

Let's establish roughly where it is in the world.

Ryanair fly here and it's east of Greenwich Meridian.

[DAL767-400ER]

Okay, just for starters I'll say Pisa.

[Petertenthije]

Let's establish roughly where it is in the world.

Ryanair fly here and it's east of Greenwich Meridian.

Very roughly then; continental Europe.

[brianw999]

Not Pisa

Yes, Continental Europe.

Ryanair fly there from 6 UK locations.

[Petertenthije]

Bratislava/Vienna.

[brianw999]

Bratislava/Vienna.

Nope, further north.

Handled 4,066,793 passengers in 2009.

[DAL767-400ER]

Riga?
