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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

Overnight stay

Reefueled eqch way and stayed overnight when heading back west. Good stop off before taking the trip west back across the Nullabor.

Picture of GlasairSportsman

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.

Picture of GlasairSportsman

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.

Ring in advance to ensure refueling is available at the time you fly through, particularly weekends.

Flight coastal toward Point Ann

Don't miss the coastal flight to Point Ann. Look out carefully for Whales from Point Ann to Albany. Typically August to November

Picture of GlasairSportsman

Great for an overnight stay

Bremer Bay is great for an overnight or more stay.

Bremer Bay Resort was incredibly helpful with airport pick up and drop off.

Refuel here before going whale watching

The coast between Albany and Point Ann to the east has an incredible number of whales close to shore in August through to November. Stay at Albany or Bremmer Bay.

An amazing place to fly into

The opportunity to land here is incredibly rare, Perth's original airstrip.

The last time was the SAAA Langley Park Fly In, October 2011.

My landing is captured on this link on YouTube.

Margaret River is a great place to fly to and stay a couple of nights. Terrific area to visit.
