Some about airport :
Full name : Mariscal Sucre International Airport, Spanish: Aeropuerto Internacional Mariscal Sucre, ICAO: SEQU was the main international airport serving Quito, Pichincha Province, Ecuador. It was the busiest airport in Ecuador by passenger traffic, by aircraft movement and by cargo movement, and one of the busiest airports in South America. It was named after Venezuelan-born Antonio José de Sucre, a hero of Ecuadorian and Latin American independence. It began operations in 1960, and during its last years of operation, handled about 6.2 million passengers and 164,000 metric tons of freight per year. The airport, one of the highest in the world (at 2,800 metres or 9,200 feet AMSL) was located in the northern part of the city, in the Chaupicruz parish, within 5 minutes of Quito's financial center; the terminals were located at the intersection of Amazonas and La Prensa avenues. Mariscal Sucre International was the largest hub for TAME with an average of 50 daily departures.
Airport ceased all operations at 19:00 on February 19, 2013, following the departure of TAME flight 321 to Guayaquil (scheduled for 18:55). Iberia operated the final international departure from the airport. On the morning of February 20, 2013, all operations moved to the new Mariscal Sucre International Airport. The first domestic flights scheduled to arrive at the new airport were TAME Flight 302 originating in Guayaquil, and LAN Flight 2590 originating in Lima, Peru. The new airport is located in the Tababela parish, about 18 kilometres (11 mi) to the east of the city.
It was constructed by a private consortium.
The former airport is now the site of Parque Bicentenario, the biggest urban park in Quito.

Beware of high terrain on base turn !
It is very simple with FG. This approach is relative simple in comparision with Descent ECHO VOR DME 2 circling approach to runway 14 Cochabamba from NE direction, in that case You must fly 20 nm arc, then make tight turn, fly straight 10 miles, again tight turn and make final 8 miles arc. SLCB will be next WCA event...
