[brianw999]

Now defunct Canada 3000... so the runway is 3100 metres long ?

It is Canada 3000, but wrong runway length...
Here's the clue again.

new clue...

Runway's length is a ton more than the number in a defunct airline from the Americas' name.

Here's the clue again.
Runway's length is a ton more than the number in a defunct airline from the Americas' name.

A ton being 2,000 pounds (at least in the US...) I would make the runway length 5,000 feet - only because 5,000 meters would be over 16,000 feet, and that seems a bit long for a runway.

[brianw999]

Now then....

There are three types of ton.

Long ton (UK)........2240lbs.
Short ton (US).......2000lbs.
Metric tonne..........1000kg or 2204lbs.

Which one ?

[ced ampo]

Metric tonne, in kg. Sorry for the confusion, forgot about the other types of tonnes because in the Philippines, we use 1,000kg as a value of a ton.

The search options are too wide ranging. Need some more info please.

The country it is located in has no ports (Landlocked), and has more than 600km of electrified train lines.

Not in Oceania

Navoiy Airport, Uzbekistan ?

[ced ampo]

Yes, that is correct Brian.

Off-topic, but sorry if I did not manage to check earlier, I was in Hong Kong, and just returned yesterday in PR307.

[brianw999]

4 runways, 3 airlines (2 operating for 1) and a VERY close link to another type of travel !!

[brianw999]

In fact, one could catch the other mode of transport during the landing roll ! Not that you'd want to do it that way.

Burnie Airport/Wynyard Airport?

EDIT:Gotcha! Gisborne Airport

[brianw999]

Oh well done that man. Gisborne it is.

Thanks..

Now for the next clue.
My ICAO code does glow and i'm pretty high up from the sea, more than 1000 feet up, actually. I'm not in North America, nor South America, not even in Oceania!
