Air Base or International airport

Why this article is called Air base a Slatina?! Same the International airport. I suggest to rename article into the International airport "Slatina". Добрый ТиП (talk) 11:44, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

But is this international commercial airport? I dont think so... Air base is translation from official name "Aerodrom Slatina". --WhiteWriter ^speaks 12:24, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

- My English is awful, I read badly, therefore I suggest to look at an official site of the airport: AIROPORT "SLATINA". As I suggest to look at Article in Russian Wikipedia.--Добрый ТиП (talk) 12:45, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Here look:

I apologise for machine translation --Добрый ТиП (talk) 12:53, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well NATO armies this airport certainly can and is considered as military base, but it does not deprive a right Slatina to be the international airport which it is since 1990. Slobodan Miloshevich used it as military base of the fighters only in bombardments of its country. And that the American planes have seriously damaged an aviation regiment.

Did you accidentally mistaken those two?

Pristina International Airport Adem Jashari

Slatina Air Base

Those are two different ones.

- Their co-ordinates identical. The airport of Prishtina is in a Slatina (some kilometres on the southeast). KFOR grasped a Slatina. In Kosovo there are no airdromes or the airports simply more. Cheerfully at you it turns out. About the same object - two different articles. --Добрый ТиП (talk) 13:29, 27 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
