    Although airport is large in size, it is is not as alive as many airports it's size. It is an Airforce Base with limited info available as well as lacking infrastructure such as Fueltrucks, Pushback vehicles. Therefore don't expect trucks and busses etc. The real airport does not have fuel, but I have added a fuel pump withing the military area.
