Did they finally change the name of the airport in the past 2 years, to match the change of the rock next door? Conellan would be a neutral version, but the ICAO needs to follow as well.

boetie Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 Great photos Rob. You certainly get around! If Wolfgang doesn't have a shot I'll submit this one from a couple of years ago.

bernief Posted September 21, 2021 Share Posted September 21, 2021 Hi Graeme. The airport is YBBN, Brisbane International. The photo looks like it was taken from the Airlines Maintenance Area but I can't work out what the two light aircraft are doing there. VH-BLI gives it away as it appears to be based at Archerfield. The shape of the terminal looks like it did when I was last there. Cheers Bernie 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stillwater Posted September 30, 2021 Author Share Posted September 30, 2021 I am back from a short vacation, which let me drive along one of our favourite Orbx airports. No, it is not Melbourne, not Honolulu and not Tapini either. You will surely be able to guess it, even though we only see a POI off the apron (but in the scenery package). If I knew that we would be stuck for an hour in a traffic jam (caused by the discovery of a WW2 bomb in the city center) only seconds after the picture, I could have taken a more perfect one.
