panther2 commented 7 years ago

Düsseldorf Airport (German: Flughafen Düsseldorf; until March 2013 Düsseldorf International Airport; IATA: DUS, ICAO: EDDL) is the international airport of Düsseldorf, the capital of the German state North Rhine-Westphalia. It is located approximately 7 kilometres (4.3 mi) north of downtown Düsseldorf, and some 20 kilometres (12 mi) south-west of Essen in the Rhine-Ruhr area, Germany's largest metropolitan area.

Düsseldorf is the third largest airport in Germany after Frankfurt and Munich handling 23.5 million passengers in 2016. It is a hub for Air Berlin and Eurowings and has Lufthansa's only long-haul route (to Newark) outside of its hubs in Frankfurt and Munich. The airport features three passenger terminals and two runways and is able to handle wide-body aircraft up to the Airbus A380.

This will take me some time and I will definitely need to ask for help here and there. So please don't add it to any milestone for now. But I would love to see my "home" airport being added to OpenScope one day!

Just a notice that I am still willing to go on with this and #447 . At the moment I just feel sort of overhelmed by all the changes/modifications that are underway. So I am just waiting for a sort of "consolidation" in the airport-format, airport-file-standards and probably other doc files, that I really do need as orientation to not get further lost.

I'm still there... only very small progress due to lack of time.

Just to give a sign of life...
