Germany: It helps to have a lot of airports when starting world wars.

It’d be interesting to see the same map, but comparing the ratio of population density to airport density.

Us Brits need to get out of the country as much as possible

Ha, finally something where my country can excel – we’ve got 22.7 airports / 10,000 sq km. And they’re all international airports, too. (raw data: 1 airport, 439 sq km total land area)

So… a population density map?

No source again, starts to become a new standard…
I’m very curious what the definition of ‚airport‘ is for this, as the numbers seem ridiculously high unless you count pretty much every bit of grass where a Cessna could theoretically land.

Correct me if I’m wrong, but isn’t this also a case of more small airports vs fewer big ones? IIRC around London they built lots of smaller ones because they couldn’t allocate enough space to expand Heathrow or something.

Not sure how they got this number for croatia. We have 56k sq km in land which means there should be ~60 airports in the country according to this. We have 20-25 max.
