RAF Luqa.

As of August 2007, the actual RAF base has been partially subsumed into the civilian airport.

Parts of the camp are still accessable - the camp main gate (posts), sentry box & Guardhouse are still visible from the main road. Parts of the (now mainly ruined) General Office still stand, along with several rows of Nissan huts (situated behind the Guardhouse) - which now form part of a trading estate.

The RAF barracks are now "Luqa Barracks" - a part of the Maltese Armed Forces

You can't access the barracks, though from the outside it looks relatively intact - I think some of the old married quarters accomodation has been demolished.
