Paulo2004: You do realize that trans-Atlantic flights don't fly as far south as Portugal, the Azores or the Madeira Islands. The flight path from the US/Canada/Mexico to Europe goes very near Greenland, because with the earth's curvature its actually the shortest distance.

Here's the routing of a flight from Atlanta, USA to Frankfurt, Germany. As you can see, it goes nowhere near Portugal or its territories.

Thanks for the great pics.

Lisbon's airport is great :)!

Yes I know, but on a clear day where I live (central portugal) you'll see many planes flying over this country. Bear in mind that all flights from europe to South America use portuguese air space, not to mention those that operate to North America and Central America without non-stop flights ( and they are quite a lot) with usual stops in France and Spain.

I forgot to post The International Airport of the Portuguese islands - Azores. PAUL JOHN II INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

The Azores airport looks nice and modern.

you should have shown pictures the New Porto Airoprt. It's been remodeled, and it's quite amazing. From the Porto Airoprt you only show pics of aeroplanes taking off!!

I found some good pics and posted them in another thread. The photo's author is also member of this forum and when he saw them he immediately removed them from its original site.

Since then I have looked all over the net for other pics, but haven't found any.

I found these.. I hope the website owner wont mind.

Those in the reply nr 12 are quite old, and this last onde, isn't very recent either...

LET'S KEEP ON LOOKING FOR THEM GUYS.

I can't see most of the pics, but the one I can see are just great.


:okay:


Do you have a list from passanger traffic volume on Portuguese airports?

wow...great airports, but the most impressing one is Funchal/Madeira...its simply out of this world

Yes, specially the runway built over the ocean.

I'm not quite sure about it, all Air France flights I took, none of them used Portuguese air space, actually the closiest of Portugal it passed was Santiago de Compostela.
of the flights were Sao Paulo to Paris and vice versa.

New Oporto Airport

The complete renovated Porto International Airport (Francisco Sá Carneiro) will be inaugurated in October 2005.

^ That would be Francisco Sá Carneiro. ;)

Splitting hairs at this point, but why is the adjective "lusitano" and not "luso?"

Great pics!

A way of promoting the country, I guess.

I heard it will be 4 times bigger than the actual one.
