Flattery at the extreme

Good to know that (presumably) BKI's T1 now sufficiently iconic to be worthy of such emulation

Perhaps the media used a wrong picture ?

I believe that "artist impression" is BKI indeed. The runway & taxiway also looks alike, even the sea at the background !

 

Interesting to see the "artist impression" differs from its airport development plan so much ! Indo Sri Lanka Maritime
