Basel-Mulhouse-Freiburg is the only developed airport in FlightGear that is operated by 3 countries (Switzerland, France and Germany), hence the name "EuroAirport". The Airport lies completely in French soil (with public transport connections from Switzerland operated by SBB <nowiki>[Swiss Federal Railworks]</nowiki> and a local Bus line from Basel), but the airport is categorized as a Swiss airport. The reason why is because it used to be the former Swissair's Hub until 2001, after it's bankruptcy . Currently, the only Real airline with a Hub in Basel-Mulhouse is EasyJet Switzerland.

Because of the EuroAirport being binationality, it has 3 IATA's: BSL (The Swiss code for Basel), MLH (The French code for Mulhouse) and EAP (international code for EuroAirport). This airport has a similar state to [[Geneva_International_Airport|Geneva's Airport]], excluding the multiple IATAs. Its ICAO code is LFSB.

'''PLEASE NOTICE:''' The in-game navigation data '''IS WRONG''' (except radio frequencies). Please read this article fully or see the charts (link below).
Also, the runways are mistaken. <s>16</s> is 15 and <s>34</s> is 33, but when selecting an airport, this are shown.


===Start-up===
===Start-up===


Since there is no park positions set, we ask you to start at LFSB in runway 34L. If you have a small 1 Propeller engine plane, you can start up as well on 15R. Then push back to a gate of choice on Terminal 1 (the only one). After that, you can ask the tower for start up and other normal procedures.
There are 5 start-up positions, which are the 5 [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helipad helipads], the actual gates have to be added, so we ask you to start-up here. Then push back to a gate of choice on Terminal 1 (the only one). After that, you can ask the tower for start up and other normal procedures.


LFSB has "6" runways, tough only 4 are used (as cited above). The grass runways are MERELY for Start-up, they're too short for landing.
