Number 27 (above) showed a photo of Longmont, CO (Vance Brand Airport) as submitted by Jim Randazzo from the USA. I would say that about 25-30% of the e-mails I received back on this one were wrong - our successful guessers are listed below:

Dean Brown Jack W. Power III Rick Branch Marco Roth David Lee Bruce Nicholson Sune Granzow |
Doug Vokey David Austin Mick Jones Andrew Webb Michael McCracken Hugh McLean |
Seems that about half of you looked to the NAV display on my Do328jet panel to find the VOR and triangulate the position some 12 miles away. Without that this would have been a true stumper! David Austin noted, "The harder it is, the more fun it is when you find it."
Number 28 (real photo and FSX view, above) comes with the following information: "This is a photograph of a new terminal building, constructed at a European airport. This terminal opened in December 2006. A new runway was also added and it became operational in August 2006. Unfortunately, the new runway didn't get included even in FSX. The airport is close to one of the oldest towns in Europe. The town's history can be traced back more than 7,000 years. In the centre of town is a statue of Czar Alexander who liberated the country from Ottoman rule."
So the question is, "What city / airport are we talking about?"
Note: I happened to fly over this airport during an "Around the World Tour" in Dash-8 aircraft and threw in this photo (below) just for good measure.
