re: Watching the discussion
Oh by the way, I did respect the views on this site and did in my posting some time back ask that any issues relating to any problems etc in regard to the tenant of Aldinga Aviation, Adelaide Biplanes, should address these problems with our new progressive board.
I did ask that we should all put this to rest as the subject had been flogged to death. I wonder what inspired an individual with such a obvious poisoned twisted mind to incorrect assume and post such a mentally unbalanced tirade? Whether it be against me or not.
re: Watching the discussion
Well well well. So some spineless creature who does not have the testicular fortitude is maybe pointing a finger at me, Chris Wise.
I did identify myself on this site and had my say, but it seems like we now have someone who incorrectly assumes (Never assume as it makes a ASS out U and ME )'
Now put yourself in Gaylene's shoes who may have instigated this post.
Everyone, And I mean everyone gave Martyn and Gaylene and Bonnie all the support in the world. My wife and I felt for them in a big way.
We lost our son last year, but we are not taking this out on anybody else.
And here lies the nucleus of the problem.
Gaylene has engaged in a vendetta againts aviators in Australia who she thinks have done wrong. She has attempted to dob aviators in at events other than at Aldinga.
THe classic was when she, with her husband present, ran to CASA because she had heard stories about the antics of some pilots at a gathering at Mick and Di's Skypark at Port Lincoln.
When CASA advised her that it was a private show and that they could not attend these events unless invited, she asked why they could not hide in the tress and wach what was going on.
So, this had nothing to do with them. But this is only one inc incident of dobbing.
This is not the Australian way of doing things, one talks to the alleged offender first IF IT HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH YOU.
Then Mr Smith tells me that the Australians have a terrible flying culture and when asked about it, He says that he is going to change it, This from a POM who had only recently arrived in Australia.
Look, at the end of the day, we all do sympathize with the Smiths, but they cannot take what happened to them out on the whole industry.
This is why, not just me, but many others in the flying fraternity have had enough of their dobbing arrogant attitude.
Read the posts, quite obviously the author of the last post has a fixation that I am the author of then. WRONG
One must remember that the Smiths thru the first stones and naturally some people will throw a stone back and they should learn to take the return flack that they so happily dish out.
I did post an article asking that all of this be put to rest, but if this snake in the grass wishes to continue with the trash, then please, identify yourself if you have the courage and BRING IT ON.
So if you are referring to me and my accurate opinions and assumptions of the Smiths which is quite obviously shared by many others, then instead of making accusations without identifying yourself and stand up and be accounted for, or are you also going to be another anonymous gutless dobber.
Now, If you are indeed referring to me, I am not bigoted and nor do I have a toxic mind. Only towards those who see fit to unjustifiably harm me or my mates, then it becomes more that toxic, it becomes very angry.
So what now Ms anonymous.

re: customs guy took some of my stuff to give to his wife
I would call and give the name on his tag to AIr port director, they will find out what time and who are in charge of that period. It's unacceptable treat.
My wonder on the trip arrival, do airport have the duty free inside arrival terminal so I can buy some stuff for my relatives? do you?
Thanks

Mayor of Kenge
Dear Sqongers,
I'm glad people have finally discovered Kenge and realised what a truly benge place this is. My name is Royston Spengeworthy and I am the Mayor of Kenge. I would like to share a little of our Kenge-tastic culture with you. Here is an extract from our town anthem. It is the chorus and, coincidentally, is sung to the same tune as your Western 'Silent Night'
"Silent Kenge
Holy Kenge,
All is munge
All is tunge,
Round yon spenger
Tarken and flark
Flunge in heavenly me-ee-enge.....
Flunge in heavenly Kenge"
I hope to welcome you all to Kenge in the near future.
Happy spengeing!
Slengetastic!
Kenge is mint. I skenged there last month. They must have read the feedback as there was plenty of mengebrau, and even some penge. When I asked about flunge they said Basten was on the case. He is mint too.
Nice place
wery nice field on beautifull island Hvar
In your face corruption
This is the main airport where Satan trains his devils on how to rob and extort money. Never has the human soul been subject to dread and horror as the frenizie of the lust for foriegn currency is unleashed. If you have the misfortune of going to hell when you die, I sure you will be treated with much more respect and dignity their.
Friendly little airfield
Friendly place to stop, grass or snow. Great for tailwheel, ultralights. Picnic tables, bikes to go into town, washrooms and more.
US Customs Stop
Stop here for US Customs if heading West to Oshkosh. Friendly and flexible with the ETA.
Overnight Stop
Spent the night here, camped on the infield. The airport manager offered to let me sleep inside the terminal, but there was no traffic and it was more comfortable to tie the aircraft down on the grass, pitch the tent and sleep beside the aeroplane.
Beautiful spot
Wonderful quiet little airport in Northern Wisconsin, out in Lake Michigan.
SuperCub.Org Flyin
Very friendly tailwheel flyin takes place here during the week of Oshkosh. Make a reservation, fly in, camp here and take the daily bus over to AirVenture (if you wish). Many of the New Holstein fly-in folk prefer to just stay here for the week, and don't even bother with the crowds at Oshkosh.
Inexpensive, quick fuel stop
Stopped here for inexpensive fuel after picking up the Club's Decathlon from the factory at Fox River. Take off from Fox River, climb to 1000 feet, look right and you are right base for KBUU.
Home of the American Champion Factory (Decathlons, Scouts, E
30 foot wide runway, but it looks like 20 feet! Flew the Club's Super Decathlon C-GKXD out here from Ottawa (Rockcliffe) for some TLC. Two weeks later, flew back trhough Milwaukee to fly the Decathlon back to Rockcliffe. Lots of Fun!
Cave Cay Air Strip
Dose any one know how long this airstrip it? Please e-mail me at captdonmull@yahoo.com,,,Thank you,,, Don
re: Identifier?
Reply to @david: http://www.activitae.com/cgi-bin/htmlSearch.pl - I don't know if this actually looks at the ICAO database, or if it just applies the standard rule to the FAA ids. But it lists KOWD (and not abominations like K7G0 like I've seen in some places).
re: Fort Erie Airport
According to the CFS, the western 2,350 ft portion of the runway is still in use. If you zoom in on the satellite view, you'll see a faint "28" painted about a third of the way from the east end of the runway.
re: Identifier?
Reply to @ptomblin: the problem is that the ICAO doesn't recognize all of the KXXX identifiers. For example, Norwood Airport (FAA: OWD) is referred to as "KOWD" in GPS databases, but AFAIK, there is no "KOWD" ICAO code.
re: Incorrect link
Where are you seeing the broken link?
re: Information board
Apologies for any problems. The flight information is provided to OurAirports free by FlightStats, and we include it as a convenience for visitors. The data is quite good for major airports, but sometimes seems to lag a bit for smaller airports, especially outside North America.
re: Closed
Thanks - updated.
re: Wrong Possition
Thank you - I've updated the location and runway information.
re: Wickham airport is closed
Reply to @GlasairSportsman: Thank you. I've updated the airport status. It's always sad when an airport closes.

re: Persian Kittens
It's a scam. Please post the email addresses and other contact information. Also report them to Craigslist to get the ad taken down.
Persian Kittens
I found on craiglists.com Persian kittens for free. When I email them they told me it is free you just need to pay transportation fee for $120. They send me a photo but all of them had elshetlay marks (web that sell persian kitten in germany) I got 3 emil confarmation

Best place ever
I've gotten soo much sucky sucky around this airport. I will not stop taking the flights that go here.
Sea plane base!
I didn't know if I'd find this one in here but I did! My one and only sea plane ride. I swear the pilot had been sipping some whiskey when he came to pick us up, but he did take us for spectacular plane ride along the coast.
llittle more than a landing strip!
caught a flight here back to San Jose - wow, I think this counts as the smallest airport ever for me.
Refuel
Landed many times here to refuel
Attended the opening
Attended the opening of this airfield in a Dragon Rapide, DH89a
Great location
Fly here and have lunch.
Did this in a tiger moth.
Learnt to fly here
Started my flying at Shepparton as a 16 yr old.
SAAA fly in
Flew from Perth Western Australia to Cowra for the SAAA annual fly in, 2010.
Camped on the field. Great location.
Refuel and stay
Good place for a stop over to refuel and recharge.
Refuel here
Good refueling at YPAG. Stretch and have your own sandwich. No food available on the field.
Overnight stay
Reefueled eqch way and stayed overnight when heading back west. Good stop off before taking the trip west back across the Nullabor.
Refueled here
Stopped to refuel due to Forrest being out of fuel. Take care if there has been recent rain. The strip as some low spots. You will see the wet spots of there are weeds growing over the strip.
I hope they have replaced their refueling ladder. It is a death trap.
Great facility
Stayed overnight at Forrest. Great for a break. Airport manager was terrific.
Call in advance to confirm fuel is available.
Last fuel heading east till Forrest
Kal is worth a stop over to see all the mining history.
Refuel here before heading east on the Indian Pacific rail line to Forrest.
Great place to visit
Exmouth is at the entrance to Cape Range National Park and Ningaloo Reef.
This is an incredible place to visit. Snorkel and swim with whale sharks and manta rays when in season.
Snorkel Turquoise Bay is a must do.
Swimming with a whale shark or manta ray you will remember all your life.
