Fairly simple. A person posts a photo of an airport and a hint of where it is (i.e. region, state, country, stuff nearby, etc.), then people have to guess where it is. Intelligent answers only, please . Photos can be of real-life airports or flight sim airports given that it has a reasonable resemblance to the real life airport. Finally, the airport must be a passenger airport with at least ~5 million passengers a year.

 

I'll start:

A busy airport in Canada.

This airport doesn't get anywhere close to 5000000 passengers a year, but it is an extremely well known airport in the Himalayas:

Sao Paulo, obviously :P

Anyway, top sure is good old Pearson in Toronto and Lukla looks as scary as always.


I don't know if Maiquetia counts, as it is pretty much empty these days...
It has a famous tiled floor. Winds are predominately east-west, and it has two runways, 10-28 and 09-27. There is no toilet paper, hint hint. An airline based there uses a 747 in a lovely orange livery (yes, I like it, no sarcasm here) for a route with fifty passengers per flight.

My favorite airport ^_^ Country is a small island near the South America. Recently opened a new terminal that can accommodate nearly 1.6 million passengers annually. Is a hub for 3 airlines, and a large, bright blue aircraft flies here.

Guys, use a different url or save the image and reupload under a different name (which some of you have but some haven't) otherwise it's way too easy to cheat ;)

This airport is featured in the James Bond movie SkyFall, albeit lit up at night making it look much nicer than it does here.

This airport may be relatively small, but it has an unusually large general aviation sector (additional clue in the photo, because I couldn't find a better one, sue me.)
