Abu Dhabi Red Bull Air Race

[SQnovice]

Just wondered what airport they were using for the race, my guess is that it was Al Bateen, pretty central and close to the corniche. Could anyone confirm this please?

[surely not]

They use an area of concrete on Al Mina Port for the runway and I think they make small portable hangars for the technicians to work in.

I think this is the strip they used.

That link brought up a map of London?!!?

The strip is in Al Mina Port down opposite the market selling pots and pans and plants.

Not sure what happened there - it worked OK when I tried it in the preview.
