Title: Guess the airport
Post by: cameron1991 on November 21, 2008, 07:17:26 am
Fairly similar to MrOrange's plane of the day, but you have to guess the airport instead! (Must be a commercial airport with scheduled flights)
The person who correctly guesses the airport gets to post the next picture! (it can be any part of the airport, ie terminal, Control tower, terminal interior etc)
If no one has guessed the airport correctly after 24 hours, you can post a clue.

I'll start with an easy one.

This airport is in America, so its pretty obvious what 2 airports in the US it could be.

here we go :) It's a USA airport. And there is a major hint in this one, if you spot it out.
Title: Re: Guess the airport
Post by: CHR on November 22, 2008, 08:09:28 am
San Francisco International? I suppose the hint is the Air New Zealand plane.
Title: Re: Guess the airport
Post by: Vamerica on November 22, 2008, 09:13:41 am
And you would be correct, and yup. It is the Air NZ plane, as Air NZ only services 3 US airports(HNL, LAX, and SFO) and HNL gets the 767, LAX gets 747's, and SFO gets the 777


so, your turn :D
Title: Re: Guess the airport
Post by: CHR on November 22, 2008, 09:35:27 am
This doesn't have much in the way of clues, just the distinctive terminal.

LAX also gets the 777, I'm not sure of the frequency, but I think it's 1x daily 747 and 1x daily 777.

For CHR's pic, I'm sure it's a European airport, just not sure which one...

Missed it again. I just worked it out!

It's not that hard if you look for clues. For example, it is a Southwest destination (narrows it down a lot), it seems to be a warm climate (look at the trees), and it was a large airport.

I suppose I'd better give a clue as I'm going on holiday for a week this Saturday and I won't have access to a PC to check if anyone is correct.

So here's the clue which kinda makes it too easy... But I couldn't think of anything else that doesn't really give it away.

Americas

If it is the Red River would it be Clarksville/Red River Airport?

Small question... Is that a north orientation?
