re: المطار مفتوح للرحلات الدولية وعدد 2 مهابط جديدة

Reply to @SRX: على سبيل المثال، في مدينة أو قرية حاج البحري (لا أعرف إن كانت تُعتبر مدينة أم قرية)، يوجد مطار على بُعد حوالي ميل واحد إلى الجنوب الشرقي، لكنه غير مُشار إليه على الخريطة هنا.

re: المطار مفتوح للرحلات الدولية وعدد 2 مهابط جديدة

Reply to @SRXهل يمكنك تزويدي بتحديث حول حالة المدارج النشطة والصالحة للعمل في ليبيا؟ على سبيل المثال، يبدو أن مطار HL0N AI Booster مدرج مهجور وغير نشط، ولا يوجد فيه أي حركة.:

Glacier du Dolent

1. Valley entry

enter via:

Val Ferret (Italy or Switzerland)

low altitude → gradual climb

2. Reconnaissance (essential)

first high pass (300–500 ft above)

check:

slope

wind (snow drift indications)

crevasses

3. Direction choice

Always:

land into the wind

BUT also:

land uphill (uphill landing)

n the mountains this is more important than the runway itself

4. Final approach

short and direct

no guaranteed go-around.

A very dangerous area for landings, and difficult even for experienced mountain pilots. Yet, from time to time, someone still lands there or performs a touch-and-go without leaving any documentation of the landing spot or the type of approach used

First comment.

The airport is temporarily used by Kuwaiti airlines as an alternative to Kuwait International Airport due to the Iran war.

This airport is still usable for light aircraft with tundra tires.

re: Rounded coordinates for runways

Reply to @GeoFS: The internal coordinate precession is six decimals, only the change report is rounded to four decimals.

CUF information.

The route is operated by Air Arabia Maroc.

It mainly serves:

the Moroccan community in Northern Italy

ethnic traffic (families, work)

It is a low-cost route and relatively easy to fill.

re: meteo?

Reply to @Gkikas_LGPZ: None yet,No, we don’t have a weather station providing met reports for the aerodrome yet. We know it would be really useful and we’re actively looking into getting one, but we’re still researching the best option for our setup.

Do you have any recommendations for a good weather station suitable for our airfield?

Thanks!

re: History

Reply to @Bollardant2: thank you

i've been wondering if this airport was real for a while now.

Picture of Bollardant2

History

First depicted on a 1988 Goulds topographic map with an approximately 280m long curved airstrip. Interestingly, the runway is striked with an X, possibly indicating closure. It was also depicted on the 1994 Goulds topographic map with the X. By 1999, the site was overgrown, and became part of a plantation by 2002.

Picture of Bollardant2

History

The airstrip first appeared in a 1974 Everglades topographic map measuring approximately 1,300 metres long. In the 1987 West Palm Beach topographic map, it was listed as “Southern Ranch.” Maintenance of the strip seems to have ceased after 2022.

Fun Little Airport!

Went planespotting here for a few hours. It was a pretty fun experience, especially being someone without that much zoom on his camera. Even got to see the local Stearman “Cloud Dancer” take off and land!

re: note!

Reply to @labubuairportenthusiast: hey its me!

for simplicity, i'll refer to this strip as "CLS", for coopland landing strip.

so anyways, this airport seems to have been established between 1994-1999? it's first viewed on a aerial of the area in 1999 with activity. i used the official property search for miami-dade county, and found the folio number. this parcel was owned by a company named "BAAAMA IV LLC", which (take this with a grain of salt) takes back to leonard abess, a banker from the miami area. CLS may've been used as a private airstrip, considering that the county lists the parcel as a agricultural area, as a nursery. but for the status of the actual airport's operation, i'm not 100% sure, but there is proof from the county's property search that it IS owned. do whatever you want with this information. it might be kinda useless, but hey, it's cool to learn or something

Picture of labubuairportenthusiast

note!

i'm working on gathering information about coopland landing strip for further reference.

Picture of labubuairportenthusiast

CORRECT location, ignore the first entry.

the ACTUAL bright hour ranch airport. disregard the one to the west of arcadia, that is NOT the actual location of BHR.

Reply to @ReefShore316: why tf did you make it in the first place

Picture of labubuairportenthusiast

re: not sure??

reefshore i mean sure but at the same time it wouldnt necessarily be a airstrip just because its a long cleared plot of land, but to each their own

Picture of labubuairportenthusiast
Picture of labubuairportenthusiast

the marker is too far south.

can you lock the fuck in

southern ranch airport is above this marker, towards where the canal turns

Picture of Gkikas_LGPZ

meteo?

Is there a weather station providing meteorological reports for the aerodrome?

Picture of Zechrits

Planes goes vrooom

Well since I'm directly underneath the flight path just around aloha area, that makes me always seen aircraft quite close and that made me happy

Picture of Bollardant2

re: not sure??

Reply to @labubuairportenthusiast: I do agree. It may have simply been a cleared plot of land and a storage warehouse. I have personally found some information regarding the land. It was owned by Klein Farms Inc, which was established in 1977 and remained there until it was administratively dissolved in September 2000. There are no airstrips that are listed as under their ownership.

If they were to use a crop dusting service, it is more than likely that they would hire a local aerial applicator rather than building their own airstrip as it is cost effective.

re: GA gyro center

Reply to @animebirder: Note: there was some documentary confusion with a completely unrelated GA field in Pampanga which has been cleared up.

Picture of animebirder

GA gyro center

This hilltop strip appears to have been a nexus of gyro and helicopter activity until a 2020 crash at this location lcaimed the life of proprietor pilot Ferris Kauley. Given the preponderance of "FK" related aviation "hubs" in this area, and the lack of further documented activity, the combination of the COVID downturn and the organizer's death seems to have completely stifled further GA efforts into south Cebu, unless newer information is available.

Picture of animebirder

Short-lived GA strip

Home of Fly A Gyro Cebu, this strip was evidently cleared out in 2017, but the 2020 COVID pandemic shuttered operations and the owner appears to have moved on to other endeavors. No further information available.

re: not sure??

Reply to @labubuairportenthusiast: Only reason I think this is a airport (don’t hate me) is that a see a “hanger looking” building and some “runway lights” in the end of the runway.

Tropicbird, Volcano, Waterfalls

Agreed that Tropicbird is a great rental choice. I took the 172 up with Trek and we flew counterclockwise round the island. Captain Cook point, the volcano (missed the erruption by a week!). over Hilo, along the NE shores with 1000ft waterfalsl straight into the ocean, then back up over the saddle and down into Kona. Amazing approach from the north over the water.
