Another really interesting Airport is the one in Gibraltar. In this pic you are looking south with Morocco in the background, Spain behind you and the main ( and only ) road into Gibratar that
runs into the colony.
You're welcome Fred.
It's my favorite place in Europe.
You have the security of English policemen and courts along with a very cosmopolitan population - Morrocan, Spanish, Brit and Italian. Lots of history, great restaurants and sailors/ private yachts from all over. The ferry over to Ceuta in Africa is 2 hrs.
You can walk from one end to the other and Engrish is widely spoken.
Gibraltar was a strategic fortress for the British during the second world war.
The limestone hill has hundreds of miles of tunnel through it with various "buildings" including a hospital complete with operating theater and x-ray section.
Gibraltar's history is fascinating to say the least.
