Nice place.
Stopped in to pick up Walter a Lifeline flight passenger to take to KMCK. but its no longer Signature. it is North Shore Jet Center and they were very accommodating. When I asked about getting a discount on fuel for compassion flights they said yes normally they did but their self-service fuel station was not working so they were already discounting all the fuel to the self-serve price which was less expensive than my hometown airport.
Airport Designator 3AK9
3AK9 seems to have been reassigned to Skyland Airpark in Willow, Alaska.

Lintong Air Base (δΈ΄ζ½Ό Yaocun airfield) according to globalmilitary.net/airbases/lintong-air-base
(no subject)
The airport has been inaugurated months ago but the authorities have not made any notable efforts towards starting commercial flights...
Bad shape
This βairportβ was listed on the sectional but ForeFlight said it had no runways. I did a low approach and could see why. Unless you have a bush plane or a helicopter the paved runways are unlandable. 3 foot high bushes throughout. The dirt runway looked somewhat maintained
No ctaf
This airport doesnβt have a ctaf so enjoy being nordo!
Nice place
Courtesy cars are available. I flew in for my medical.
Not bad
No fuel available but It looks like they have some expansion plans in the works. That pretty exiting

Ground transportation at Pearson
For anyone arriving at Toronto Pearson, getting into the city is pretty straightforward. The UP Express train from Terminal 1 to Union Station is the fastest option during the day β about 25 minutes. If you have lots of luggage or are traveling late at night, a pre-booked taxi or limo is worth it; YYZ Airport Taxi Limo operates 24/7 at Pearson with fixed rates, flight tracking, and meet & greet at the arrivals hall, which takes the stress out of late-night arrivals. There are also licensed airport taxis and rideshares queued at both terminals. Whatever you choose, confirm the fare before you get in.

I tow a 60" finish mower behind my tractor for mowing. It is rich soil so the grass is thick and requires no special work other than that
ICOA code is YMEG, YNIN if you use a US database
The airfield is maintained a lot better than it was in the past. I am now the new contact for the airfield. Permission is not required, but we do have regular visits from training aircraft. You can reach me on 0407 606625, please leave a message as my phone will automatically go to voicemail, and I'll get back to you.
Renamed
This airport is now once again known as "Crest Airpark"
second comment
its military now
Practice circling here
β¦with an instructor. Fun
Private territory
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.
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.

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.

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.

re: Short-lived GA strip
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!
