BLACK FOREST AIRPORT, at Lahr, whose nearest major city is Strasbourg,
30 miles away across the Rhine, is to market incoming charter airline
operations. With its 3,000m main runway it will have no problem
accepting the type of aircraft used for this style of service. The
airport”s new owner, Australian Investor Babcock & Brown, is confident
that the former NATO air base can attract passengers from a large
segment of Europe to the nearby Europa-Park in Rust, currently with
3.5m visitors annually, Germany”s largest leisure resort of its kind.
The airport is situated with very easy access to the A5, one of
Germany”s major Autobahns.
