Hello then,
some things seen on Corfu Airport. Seen while 1) upon arrival, 2) one morning at the fence and 3) with the departure. Traffic is quit slow, while the Mondays and Fridays are the busiest, that's because of the loads of British Tourists coming in (although not seen or heard on the Island). Normal landings on the 35, but while I was there the Friday morning, landings were almost all on the 17 runway. When landing or departing on the 17, all trafic on the nearby road will stopped by Airport Authorities. Landing and departing via the 35 gives nice effects on the water. I was standing on the DAM, just in front of the runway, very close and very impressive to see. No militair traffic was seen. In the weekend, quit some more bizz-aircrafts. Note that I'm not a spotter, I find it just interesting to see, so maybe some things are not correct.

. Maybe I just missed them, but also didn't saw them in the Harbor, although I was not looking for them. The treshhold of the 35 runway is indeed interesting. Also on the other side of the threshold of the 35 is a restaurant/bar with good fews. Expect the Monday's and Friday's, traffic is slow. With mostly only Aegean Airlines and Olympic Airlines on the flights to Athens. But nevertheless very nice island with a very nice airport.
