FBO
WASCO is the active GA FBO here, 100LL from the fuel truck across from FBO which doesn't move but is considered full service. ~$10/gal as of today. Nice people.
PIREP logistics
Inbound from Puerto Rico VFR.
Communications:
Talk to Beef Island (Terrance B. Lettsome International) is TUPJ (ICAO) like approach when VFR on 118.4. Claims in some places that 122.8 is UNICOM there but was quiet when I was there so not sure if that's accurate. Same for Beef Island on departure but airport personnel stated they can't receive when you're on the ground so they suggested contacting after airborn. On approach as well as departure they will ask souls and fuel duration on board.
Logistics:
No fuel
Need to email ops@bviaa.com before for permission to land
Usual eAPHIS in and out of the US if applicable
3 copies printed in and out of IACO general declaration
ED card for all persons, there is a URL but the form denied posting
Small airport no taxi's etc, rental car group (looks like 1 of 2 are in business L&M) will drop off a car
Off season is slow, 2 bar's open and 1 or 2 hotels, make sure to get a room before noon or so or may be difficult
Went for the lobster, they serve frozen off season but go in season if you are going for that
Beautiful island, nice people
Had to call customs officer to see if he would be on the island but seems like he's generally available.
Fees:
BVI AIRPORTS AUTHORITY PASSENGER CHARGES
Auguste George International Airport (ANE)
Fees:
INTERNATIONAL: Arrive: $10 Depart: $10 + $15 Dep. Tax* + $7 HBS
DOMESTIC (INTERISLAND) Arrive: $5 Depart: $5 + $7 HBS
Customs had a fee of I think it was $10 per person but I can't recall. They also charge outside normal business hours
Route from Puerto Rico:
TJSJ 18.3568065/-65.6642532 18.3919950/-65.5904388 18.3525704/-65.4860687 18.3160702/-65.3061676 TIST 18.3408390/-64.7846603 TUPJ TUPW 18.4997963/-64.3301010
Note I wanted to see the far side of Virgin Gorda so I went wide, Beef Island kept referring to this as "sightseeing"

Reply to @MarkR: What do you use to keep the grass cut and stabilise the surface? Seems like a nice country strip.

Da beginning.
I too soloed in a 150 at Dowagiac, but that was back in 1963. Been flying private ever since (over 60 years). My latest and final ride is a TBM 940.

Reply to @animebirder: Hi, I'm currently working on an academic research project regarding The three thirty Airstrip. Given your background, I'd love to ask a few brief questions to help with my research. Could I get your preferred email address or social handle to reach out? I really appreciate your time!

re: Closed in 2028
Reply to @MarioDoesAviation: I meant, a huge public park, called "Santa Monica Great Park"
Closed in 2028
Santa Monica Airport is closing on December 31st, 2028 after 50 years of complaints from locals (noise pollution, frequent crashes...) to be replaced by a huge parking lot
Any Info?
Does anyone have any info on this airstrip? It seems to be an equestrian facility and wedding venue on google maps but I can't find any info on any airstrip here.

Seasonal grass runway visible on latest sattalite imagery. Probably used by agricultural aircraft. No idea who this Airfield belongs to.
No longer exists?
According to Satellite and everything I can find the FADE Delmas Airport no longer exists and is now residential area
re: ok man
Reply to @labubuairportenthusiastTWO: I would think so.
Kairuku Airport (RKU, AYRK, KKU)
This airport isn't visible on Google Maps. Is there a pilot who can confirm its existence? Or is it an airport that should be deleted?
re: History
Reply to @Bollardant2: The Final Update
The two asphalt runways were established in 1952, parallel runway was added in 1964, and final runway was added sometime in 1979. The crosswind runway presumably closed following the 1964 expansion, and the 1979 runway replaced the one closer to the apron. Perhaps light aircraft still utilised the remaining eastern end of the crosswind runway before it was demolished, hence Stroudβs reporting of the airport in 1980.
Excellent place for a visit
A gem of Lithuania. 20 EUR per landing. Fenced perimeter with 24x7 staff.
No fuel services. OK for eclipse 500.

Before flying to NΔ«ca Airfield note that it is a private property and cannot normally be entered without permission. The airfield is closed during autumn and winter, with operations generally limited to spring and summer.
