airport from Goldeneye

[ATLien]

Hey all,

I searched all over the net and can't find the airport that James Bond drives a motorcycle off of to dive after a small plane in the beginning of Goldeneye.

I think it's in the Swiss Alps. Anyone know?

James Bond isn't real.

Says "Swiss Alps, Switzerland'" for that scene

The dam in the scene is the Verzasca Locarno Dam. Its in Switzerland but being that I've been there and jumped off of said dam, I dont remember any airport right at the sight.

And I'm trying to find the snow covered lake with dam they smashed apart from the X-Men II movie...

I wonder what kind of cigar that is.

Who cares about the cigar I want his backpack... Looks like it distributes weight oh so easily...

 

[AllAmerican75]

Screw the backpack and cigar, I want the mutton chops. Chicks dig the mutton chops. . .

I already IMDB'd it as well. This is the first time I couldn't find an answer to an obscure movie question on that site.

I've been there. Not flown into, but driven around up in that area during the summer (I would have much rather been there in the winter). That place is crazy - I'd love to fly there!

I'm going to run the numbers through PFPS, I just wonder if a P-3 could land there...

Thanks, man. Found it. It's in Nepal and is where alot of people start the Everest climb from. Looks like Vr is not a problem - just nose over. Aborting however, maybe an issue.
