General information
Welcome to Quito, the airport notorious for its nerve-wrecking landings!
Closed by now, this airport is located in the midst of the city of Quito –
which makes it one of the highest and most challenging airports in the
world!
Opened in 1960, “Mariscal Sucre International Airport” was the largest
airport in Ecuador and one the busiest in South America. Since 2000, it
served as the main hub for TAME. Its location within the city and
surrounded by mountains impeded expansions and caused several,
sometimes severe incidents during approaches. Therefore, the airport
ceased operations on February 19, 2013, moving them to the new
airport of the same name located outside of Quito’s borders.
The old Quito airport scenery is a highly accurate rendition of the airport
the way it was on its final days of operation. The airport was famous for
its challenging approaches, especially the circling approach to runway
17. A thorough photo/technical survey of the airport was done while it
was still operational, making it possible to save a little piece of aviation
history in the flight simulator world.
