I actually used the urinals at Budapest airport a few months ago.
Sorry I haven't got any pictures of either the airport or the urinals. :sad:
Flew back to Milan on an Alitalia A321 in about the worst weather I've ever flown in. Wasn't pleasant holding over Malpensa in a thunderstorm.

Terminal 1 urinals or terminal 2?
I guess you could look at another way... imagine modelling to that level of detail.... it'd certainly make FS the number one simulator

This last visit was terminal 1 I think. The new modern one that looks just like everywhere else in the world. Last time we went with Sky Europe to the old communist era terminal 2. That was different, everything was brown. My brother in law lives in Hungary.
Doesn't flight one's ATR have a flushing toilet. Although one has to ask why?

Jon, Terminal 2 (well its 2A and 2B but basically the same building), is the modern one... pretty dull from the outside, but nice inside.
Terminal 1 is the old one. I think they planned to start in 1939 but because of the war, nothing really happened until 1942 and it was completed by 1950. Up until 2004 it was used only for cargo and a few ex-eastern-bloc airline's flights but it has been revamped since then and looks stunning now. Sadly because of the lack of VIP lounges and one or two other amenities, its only used by LCCs such as Easyjet and Sky Europe.
Still, take a look at these pics (no toilets)
