..and in the last picture there’s “DEPARTURE”...…weird

That pic's Incheon Airport in South Korea.

Since this is in north Korea, why does the second picture have “Parking Clearance” in English?

English is the International Aviation Language. Been that way since the 40s. Saves a lot of translating among a lot of different languages.

I'm not going to doubt you but I suspect most of the stories coming out of NK are just propaganda by the NK govt.......

No escalators, no ramps inside? Only those stairs for all of the passengers and flight crews?

So everybody (flight crew and handicapped and elderly included) tries to use the elevator (if they even have one!) ... or humps their luggage up three flights of stairs.

English is the official language of commercial aviation.

To obtain ICAO certification of your airport you must comply with ICAO requirements. Signage in English is required.

You actually think North Korea is thinking in English?

Liberals often wish we had the same infrastructure expansion as Communist China.

Huh?

Aside from choo-choo projects they oppose anything that might lead to "sprawl".

Escalators are boo-zwa! ;’) And the Twerp likes to have victims thrown down flights of stairs I’m sure. If he ever discovers the joy of having someone thrown down an elevator shaft, they’ll probably have to include one in every design.

No elevator, just the shaft. ;’)

Wiki says they also have Air China and charter flights from MIAT (the Mongolian carrier).

And I don’t get executing the architect. What they built, if you didn’t know it was in North Korea, could be anywhere. It’s an airport, and not a unattractive one, whether it works or not. What could he have possibly have designed that was that horrible that he needed to die?

*There must be a few Kukuruzniks still around. *

Maybe some Japanese Zeroes that never took off...
