A forum to share your FS video clips and movies

Postby Stanel » Sun Jun 26, 2011 12:09 am

I would like to propose you quiz that I called "Name That Airport".

Below you may find ten links to ten videos from my landings in unnamed airports. Your task is to guess the names of the airports ( ICAO codes) and send answers to my PM box until 30.06.2011 23000Z. On 1st of July I will announce the winner.
For every correct answer you will get from 1 to 3 points depending of the difficulty of the question. To make all easier I gave a clue or clues to every airport.
