The airport of Vitoria (ICAO: LEVT) is a Spanish airport managed by AENA, built in 1980. It’s located 8 kilometers from the city center next to the village Antezana de Foronda, this is the reason why it’s known as Foronda Airport.
This airport has regular passenger flights operated by Ryanair, but it’s mainly used for cargo transport, with airlines like Swiftair, DHL and ASL Belgium operating from there. It’s Spain’s 4th cargo airport according to the amount of cargo handled. In addition to this, the airport receives a lot of charter traffic, both from cargo and passenger airlines.

A lovely small airport, well done!
Everything you'd expect and want is modelled in 3D, ground textures are very good too and the airport fits nicely into its surroundings with no flat trees or buildings visible on approach.
I would agree with the previous reviewer that the aprons appear just a little bit too lifeless.
And there's a few issues with textures/markings: For one some ground markings appear very dark and with too much contrast to the pavement they are painted on. Saturation is perfectly fine, they just need to be somewhat brighter.
Also the ground textures around the DHL terminal are kind of odd and do not fit the rest of the ground texture quality; The service road around the building is rather sterile and generic looking, and immediately adjacent to the building you can see a sort of gravel-like texture. Why couldn't they just extend the detailed ground poly all the way to the building and add some nice, used-looking pavement textures?
Despite these minor items I can still highly recommend getting this airport for any Spanish collection!
Really nice airport.
Textures are great, some of the best I have seein. Quality in general is superb. No visual artifacts and perfectly working ILSs SIDs and STARS.
Just one complain.
I know this is not exactly Heathrow or Barajas, but the passenger terminal is just too lifeless and lonely. I´m not asking for a lot of traffic, it wouldn´t be realistic, but just a ramp to pretend your passengers are dissembarking or some touch like that. It´s just completely empty...
