Air The only airport of the Republic of Tropea is International Airport Giuseppe Colucci,who was an old military airport now a commercial airport. The airport is one of the world's most dangerous airports much that is considered "St Maarten 2", why the beach of Tropea is very close with the 9 tracks and 10 and is equipped only with lights PAPI. Given the location of the tracks 9 and 10, a few metres from the Atlantic Ocean, in Visual flight conditions the perception of altitude from the ground may be distorted; There is no an installation ILS approach and landing phase becomes vital to constantly monitor the instruments. Even the departure from runway 27 and 28 is not without problems, as immediately after the deadlift, planes must gain altitude quickly, to avoid the mountains.The length of the two parallel runways and aircraft such as Airbus 380, barely enough to 3.985 and Boeing 747. The airport includes a team of highly specialized firefighters for aviation accidents fires every time because of the difficulty of landing and take-off.
