Its layout has left no provision for civil (general and commercial) aviation installations (terminals, maintenance hangars etc) at all.</p> <p>2. The runway is OK, but the exits and entrances were not designed for commercial aircraft; at best, it would suit business jets up to the size of a Bombardier Global 8000, and you can pretty much forget planes like a Boeing 737 or an Airbus A320 (and its family) or bigger. It would need major modifications and upgrades.</p> <p>3. There's the Nea Anchialos National Airport outside nearby Volos (IATA: VOL, ICAO: LGBL), which already has a terminal.</p> http://www.ourairports.com/comments/10193/ Tue, 22 Nov 2011 06:23:31 -0500 http://www.ourairports.com/comments/10193/ <p><em>Comment by an Anonymous Flier on <a href="http://www.ourairports.com/airports/LGLR/">Larisa Airport</a>, Greece:</em></p> <p>why in a city like larisa with 300.000 people there isn't a civil airport ??????????????????????</p> <p>if someone knows something please speak.........</p>
