<!-- MLA is the only airport in Malta | <!-- MLA is the only airport in Malta. It has two runways. Runway 14/32, the longer one at 3.5 km, is normally used for commercial passenger traffic while 06/24 (2.4 km) tends to be used by light aircraft. | ||
MLA offers a variety of aircraft types and liveries to the spotter.
