F4f, has it ever crossed your mind that:
the worst runway layout, 3 of 'em, crossing each other, e.g. only 1 usable at a time (statistically only a matter of time till...)
- and a location prone to fog
plus the suffering from Swiss and German strangulating restrictions

could lead to

using some ridiculous spacing during approaches, specially into rwy 34
and
unwillingness of ATC to give vectors

what some would think is providing stiff ATC...Iīm there quite often and I always thought their atc is real good...

Canīt comment on the terminals, since Iīm executive, but the airport suffers clearly from its location...but switzerland is small, where should they build another airport ? As for security, there are loads of airports in europe with security measures that donīt deserve that title...

I think LSZH is not ideal but okay...


@cornwallis: not funny

@zeedoktor: Damn germs, bloody french, italians and spaniards, they each speak whatever's on their mind, mostly in their own native tongue

try to be german and then go to, say london centre and try to figure out what that scuutisch cotrula told ya right noaw...
