Airplane Density
I am amazed at the number of airplanes indicated in and around this area !!
Pilot training
Is there a pilot training facility at Thunder Bay?
runway orientation on Google Maps' satellite imagery
Google's satellite pictures of Leipzig/Halle airport are outdated (and have been for years now), so to see correct orientation of this airport's southern runway (08R/26L) use map view.

Article
There is an article about this airport in Atlas Obscura: http://atlasobscura.com/place/safdarjung-airport
Airport Facilities are not upto standard
Improper circulation of the air conditioner. Waiting area seems crowded during departures.
It's the people
What a reception. We visited twice in 2011. Once with 5 other CTSWs and later alone. Each time the welcome was exceptional. This included
1. The controller staying late because we were delayed by adverse winds
2. Genevieve - wonderful lady - not only helping us tie down, but running us to our hotel and picking us up in the morning!
3. The parachute club driving us to the local supermarket for petrol as the airfield had run out of AVGAS
We really do like this place!

re: $200 customs ramp fee
Reply to @prattsoplenty: thanks for the tip. When I first started using TEB a few years ago, I ruled out Jet for some reason (high fees? no 100LL? don't remember). I'll take another look. I am happy with Atlantic's quick response, though.
re: $200 customs ramp fee
Reply to @david: The other option is to use Jet Aviation at the south end of the airport. There is a Customs office right next to their building. I have been using them for the past few years until I starting working for another company who used Atlantic. But now they have switched to Jet as well since Customs moved to the new location. This is because fueling is not allowed on the Customs ramp and that can delay us. As well, at Jet, it is just a quick walk to the FBO so our passengers can be in the car quicker than at Atlantic. Check out the fees and prices but Jet might be the solution you are looking for.

No, Boeing Field is KBFI.

re: $200 customs ramp fee
I sent a note to Atlantic, and their regional manager, Joe Fazio, got back to me within the hour. They will refund the $200 customs handling fee from my last visit, and are working to come up with an arrangement more suitable for small, single-engine aircraft (they don't see very many of them, unfortunately). I recommend that anyone planning to clear customs at TEB call first to confirm the fee structure, but hopefully, this problem will soon disappear. In the meantime, I'll just plan an extra customs stop at Massena or Watertown on my way down.
I do recommend Atlantic @ TEB: aside from this one issue, they've provided excellent service to me and my family over the years on our visits to NYC, and even though their gas is expensive, it doesn't add up to all that much of a difference for, say, 22 gallons in a small plane. As for TEB itself, as long as you can depart VFR, tower will almost always let a small plane cut in ahead of the lineup -- yesterday morning, I barely had time to put on my brakes at the hold-short line before I was cleared for takeoff ahead of several bizjets. An IFR departure will be another story, but that's true of any NYC-area airport, because the clearance has to come from NY Approach (I once spent 25 minutes idling at Republic waiting for my IFR release).
$200 customs ramp fee
Since the customs move to Hangar 1, there is now a $200 ramp fee for customs clearance, even for small private planes. It's not clear whether it's Atlantic charging the fee. Atlantic ramp staff said that someone is working to get the fee reduced or removed for small planes -- it's really designed for bizjets -- and that a lot of people have been caught by surprise and angry about it.

re: Worried.
Reply to @guess87: Better taje flights coming from NAIA 1,2 or 3 if that is the case. Looks like maraming mistery dito sa DMIA.
re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon
Just wondering what happened to this case. Please make an update so we, frequent travelers will be wary of what to expect and what to do when we encounter things like this. The BI's are not the DFA's and I suppose they do not have the authority to confiscate the passport, more so to tear the passport.
airplane rides for children
Hi,
I attended an event with a non profit last year that offered an opportunity for children to have a short ride in a plane (for children who may not otherwise have this experience). Is that event happening again this year? If so, I'm wondering if I could talk to someone about this and how I can get my organization involved.
Thanks!

I cant find contact details for whoever runs the airport, anyone know?
No Cabs
No cabs @ 100 Mile House anymore (as of June 2012).
The Ramada is a good stay. Safeway for groceries across the street from the airport.
Dittos on the runway slope. Unless wind prohibits, land 08 and takeoff 26.
Good job too.
debkafileโs military sources report. Several rebel bands firing mortars set fire to fighter aircraft and assault helicopters in their hangars and ripped up runways at the As Suwayda air base

Departures
C'est un scandale ! On ne peut mรชme pas suivre l'historique d'un avion parti la veille ! On ne peut suivre que les dรฉparts du jour... Et les avions partis la veille au soir mais pas encore arrivรฉs ร destination le lendemain et les familles qui voudraient avoir des nouvelles vous en faites quoi ? Vraiment le Cameroun est encore et toujours et apparemment pour longtemps ร la traรฎne...
Runways
Main runways in use are 09/27 (~900m) and 18/36 (~800m). Both runways are in quite good shape but bumpy. After heavy rain water patches can be present.
Fuel
Fuel is not yet available at Miroslawice airfield. The fuel station is a work in progress and should be completed by the end of 2012.
If you need to refuel without any problems go to EPLU (~25 NM NW, no landing/handling fees) or to EPWR (few miles to the North. Expect landing and handling fees).
Refueling both planes and pilots
Since 2 months w've got a restaurant and snack on our field.
And, coming soon during july, a brand new gas station with 100LL and Jet.
Around the field you'll find many bed'n breakfast, and so on.

Tunguska Event
this is the closest strip to 'the Tunguska Event'
15nm SSW <5,000ft.
No commercial flights
According to wikipedia, it only has a 4500 foot long runway. You're not going to see a 777 landing there unless they triple that.

re: Bureau of Immigration (BI) Officer Michael Vincent Dizon
Good to find this kind of blog here.. Anyway, is this really how our BI officers act??I've been also humiliated in front of many people at the airport. Can somebody tell me how to get a passport confiscated by BI?? And is it really normal that they give temporary receipt without the passenger's name and his passport number at least??..parang hukos pukos kasi...padulas ba hinihingi nila??...
