    Yes, French.

    If I didn't know any better I would say you are still kicking around Palais Curta, perhaps the North Wing but I am aware he lent this particular carving to his favourite pop band from the 80s but, due to errors on the address label it, ended up at Spandau Citadel instead and there it has remained ever since.

    Indeed - though the museum’s caption seems to have omitted this useful information.

    For oil and gas related stuff? Big LNG facility just offshore on the Mauritania/Senegal border about to start-up.

    Continuing with the airport theme.

    Edit : this may help?

    Ok, I've never been there but the arched bridge is pretty distinctive so Methoni Castle? If so, by elimination, the airport could be Kalamata? The only other one near-ish is Sparti which I have been to and am pretty sure the pics arent that. Unless it's changed a lot!

    Well done again, R-128! Spot on. BA flies to KLX a couple of times per week in the summer season.

    If anyone fancies a change from the usual Greek Island suspects, I can't recommend a lazy driving holiday around the southern Pelopponese highly enough.
