FS2000 LGAT – Athens Hellenikon International Airport
FS2000 LGAT – Athens Hellenikon International Airport used to be Greece’s main Airport from 1938 to 2001. Last years, air traffic in Greece was rising so much that Hellenic CAA decided to build another International Airport (LGAV-Eleutherios Venizelos Airport) with greater passenger tranfer ability.Part of the contract regarding the building of the new advanced airport of Athens, was to close any airport in a radius of 60nm from LGAV that had commercial activity. So, the day LGAV opened (28th March 2001), LGAT ceased operations for commercial flights but still it is beeing used for general aviation flights under VFR rules. By Panos Georgotas. 12MB
