Overview of the runway crossing with the road heading to mainland Spain. Lots of road traffic and pedestrians walking to / from Gibraltar. Probably the only place in the world where a road with four lanes crosses a runway!
Full apron in GIB! Due to construction works on the new terminal building (scheduled to open in 2011) there are only 2 stands left. The BA had to wait for almost 10 minutes until one of the Monarch has been pushed back. After Iberia has left GIB again, there are only 4 flights each day on an average.
