I only have 1 runway, and is in a rather remote part of the world. But many airliners visit me... my runway is more than 10,000ft long, and even has ILS on both ends.

Where am I?

Could you give us another hint? It really doesn't help matters that you are not using addon scenery for the airport or surrounding area.

Alright

sorry!

Let's see.... even though it's on a major trading location, at a crossroads of many countries, used by many hundreds of years, the people here still do not speak English or Spanish (hint hint nudge nudge). It's June, but there were still some snow on the mountains nearby.

Warmer, but not in that country.

Not so warm.

This is a very old trading location.

While looking around you would think it never rains, in the winter the locals have to use the frozen rivers.

I do trade with you!

Thule Air Base, Greenland.

People here would have never heard of that place. Nice guess, though, but the last time I tried landing at Thule I didn't see any trees... in fact, I didn't see anything outside the base that wasn't white!
