re: Almost a movie star!

Reply to @32Aret: According to the Wikipedia page for the film, the "Lincoln Airport" they referenced was a fictional airport in based in Chicago, not Lincoln, Nebraska.

Flew into Koumra in a Shorts SC7, Reg LX-UGO on Oct 2 1990. Just a quick stop just to check out the airport before continuing to Moundou, FTTD for some cold GALA. This was in conjonction with the locust control. I remember very well following the dirt road branching off the main road and leading to the threshold of 04.

Incorrect ident

The ident for this airport should be SPJC, not SPIM. Unfortunately the ident can not be edited by my own, hence leaving this comment here hoping someone with the edit privileges follows-up.

re: Main airport Nagorno-Karabakh

Reply to @david:

Hi David,

> Stepanakert is the chief city in the breakaway republic of Nagorno-Karabakh, which is not currently under effective Azerbaijani government control, though it is still internationally recognized as part of Azerbaijan

This is an outdated information. The city's official name is Khankendi. It is currently under effective control of Azerbaijani government. The international recognition has not changed - it was and still is being recognized as part of Azerbaijan by international community.

Typical Microlight Airfield

Typically a microlight strip, that has a North/South Astroturf runway for the winter months and when the ground is suitable a grass one. On a good weather day you can expect fixed and flex wing Microlights, plus paramotors and sometimes powered gliders.

There’s facilities on site but no fuel.

New Home of BEARHAWK AIRCRAFT Company

Nice little airport do not currently have Self-serve fuel but are making improvements. There was a gentleman on field tending an Ag plane and he brought the fuel truck out to top us off. They have recently installed an AWOS system that will go online shortly.

My Wife and I flew down here to meet with Virgil Irwin and his wife who recently purchased the Bearhawk Aircraft Company. They gave us a tour of his facility and then we went for a demo flight in the Bearhawk 5 Airplane.

My Home Airport

Living approximately 9 miles South of PDX for around 36 years I've seen and heard a few planes departing or arriving PDX. I've been interested in aviation since the time I was a toddler. Thanks to those that are providing this site!

Forgotten airport

This airport already opened a few years ago and was marked on google map, so I'm here to fill in the blank.

As of 2021, there are no longer any scheduled services at the airport after Yemenia suspended all routes in 2015 due to the ongoing regional conflict.[1] Previously, the airline served a handful of domestic and international destinations.

Tsushima Yamaneko Airport 対馬やまねこ空港

Very small (but neat) airport which is served by only 2 cities in Kyushu: Fukuoka and Nagasaki. Planes flying there are all De Havilland Canada propeller machines. There is one souvenir shop inside the airport with a very small cafe corner adjacent to it. The name in Japanese has the Tsushima Leopard Cat included which is indigenous to the island and the airport is full of cat mascots.

The airport closed on 1 April 2017, due to the construction of the new Hålogaland bridge (opened December 2018) which shortened the journey to the larger Harstad-Narvik Airport, Evenes, making that the primary airport for Narvik. -Wikipedia

Closed?

I suspect this field to be closed: it is not mentioned in official documentation, there is a street crossing the runway, and what may have been a "terminal" now seems to be a shop "Bristol".

Typo in encoded runway surface

The runway data dictionary specifies "ASP" for asphalt and "CON" for concrete while currently the CSV data set has

07L/25R ASPH

07R/25L CONC

Typo in encoded surface for runway 12/30

Surface for 12/30 runway in the CSV data set should be encoded as "ASP" instead of current "ASPH" as per data dictionary.

The surface for Geneva's (LSGG) 04/22 runway is reported as "CONC" while the description for the values in the data dictionary says the value for concrete should be "CON" (concrete)

re: Previous note applies to NL-0041

Reply to @animebirder: It still has no ICAO designator. EHMM is used by home based pilots for logbook purposes, but as long as the code is not published in the AIP it is not officially.

General Enquiry.

Good Morning.

I am looking at re-locating to this area of Spain and I will be bringing my Flexwing Microlight over also.

Can you please give me some more information about this air field, I.e. Is there a membership, would I be able to Hangar my aircraft here etc.

Does anyone have any information regarding this airfield that would be of use for me or any other recommended airfields within this area/location.

Any information or guidance would be most helpful and appreciated.

Thanks.

Carl.

Should be large_airport

I don't know enough about how the categories are defined to feel confident changing it myself but if an airport like KCMA (Wikipedia: Camarillo_Airport) is considered "large" it seems almost absurd to not consider this one large as well

Confusion

Apparently we must distinguish two aerodromes: on the one hand the former Soviet Air Base, LKML, now closed; on the other hand the active ultralight field LKMILO. I consider adding a separate entry, but it remains confusing. NB: thanks to @Bill35 for pointing out the official CZ VFR flight guide!
