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.

Call in advance to confirm fuel is available.

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.
Or search using Langley Park Fly In SAAA
Great location
This is a great airstrip servicing Busselton and the Margaret River region.
Weekend trip
Margaret River is a great place to fly to and stay a couple of nights. Terrific area to visit.
Great for lunch at the winery
This is a great day visit from Perth. Ensure you contact the winery first though. You need to sign an indemnity form.

Dirt strip
Great little dirt strip to practice landings close to Perth.

re: flight servies is need to Hosur airport
Its already handling B737 and A320 series aircrafts for maintenance, may not be possible to evolve into a passenger scheduled airport soon due to defense projects at TAAL(owner of airfield)..Btw is it the largest private airfield in India.
Does not exist
The airport has been gone for at least 10 years and the area around it is fully developed.
re: They don't have heart, They're just corrupt!
Is this true? How much money do they need I badly need this flight. My God! How much money do I need to show them to let me in? Ill try to change my flight to Manila Airport. I hope it' s still possible because it's just promo ticket.
re: is this safe?
Reply to @ptomblin: thank you :)
re: Scammers
wait..amy claris?im talking to her now...all she wanted me to pay is 50 dollars for a husky named jake..she might even pay for the whole thing.
re: is this safe?
Reply to @Goli: No, of course it isn't safe. For one thing, nobody in the UK would use the word "freights". That's like saying you have several "mices". For another thing, there is no such address in London. Try typing it into Google Maps.

re: Harbour Air Services
Agreed! We just visited Harbour Air over the weekend. The FBO arranged for a rental car at a terrific rate. We had great service and help with a soft tire prior to departure. Thanks, Harbour Air!
No complaints
I stopped here briefly during a training flight and found the terminal staff were fine. There is also wifi. Don't get stuck in the men's washroom! The fly in breakfast is now every third Sunday per the Brockville Flying Club website.

Cold War remnant
This airpark is the site of a Atlas F missile silo which was decommissioned ages ago. Some entrepreneurs have been trying to sell the underground control room as a luxury home and have divided the airpark into building lots, but from what I can tell there are only two houses on the site, the missile control room building and a log cabin.

Pinay Leaving Clark with Foreigner
So what's the latest on the Immigration officer issues at Clark? My gf and I are leaving there on 3 Sept and we have 4 other flights throughout asia so it's important we get this first flight. I am even contemplating buying a back up ticket out of Manila just in case. We have all our hotel and plane ticket reservations, I will give her a lot of cash to hold in her pocket and we have proof of money sent to support her as well as she has traveled out of country twice before. I have a letter of support as well, what else could they need, any advice would be appreciated.
