Started a new airport after I broke my previous one. This time we leave Europe behind and go to the new world, America. Located a bit to the west of the middle we landed in Albuquerque.
First off just a simple GA airfield.
Note: This will be no recreation of the real world airport, I will just use inspiration from diffrent airports around the globe, just needed a place and name for it.
The first commercial flights are here. The honour of the first commercial flight goes to Air Madagascar. Sadly there weren’t any American airline that wanted to be the first. After Air Madagascar, Ravn Alaska offered also flight to the airport.
Upgraded the runway to allow medium aircrafts. Expanded the terminal with medium stands. One in terminal A and the start of terminal B (right now it’s only a stroke) with already two medium stands and 1 remote small stand.
To allow all those passengers to reach their flights in time, the secuirty had to be upgraded as well. Besides that a fuel depot is build underground as well.
Much has changed, a complete terminal building overhaul. Right now terminal B is closed off because of a large expansing. In the main building the check-in desks are relocated and expanded and the start of a baggage area is on the roll. Some shops and restaurants are added as well.
No, I meant that the very first airline that offered a contract wasn’t an US airline. After this first one (Air Madagascar). The second airline that offered a contract was Ravn Alaska. So they weren’t the first. Maybe I didn’t write that down completely right.
