SFAL, A long view of the town of Port Stanley taken from the airfield (SFAL). Such is the clarity of the air in the South Atlantic that it is difficult to judge distance. For example the mountains in the background are at least 12km away.

- Within the ATC Tower at Port Stanley is a visible reminder of this airfield's history. A metal stair bannister shows where it was struck by a cannon shell, fired by an RAF BAe Harrier GR.3 or RN Sea Harrier FRS.1 in a strafing attack during the war in '82 - by Clive Pattle
