yep, that's Funchal at Madiera. half the runway is constructed on concrete pylons...there's a much better shot of that on ailiners.net.

one thing: this airport sucks in FS! really a shame how M$ created this airport for FS9  Wink

Its definately a "no room for mistakes" runway, I mean look at what happens if you dip a tad too low, rather than landing on the grass, you hit a brick wall lol.

Heres a pic of the concrete pillars.
