Airport comments for the World
Comments 10,645 to 10,694 of 15,708
Nice refueling
Nice moderately large airport, friendly and helpful staff. Gas 100LL (expensive as everywhere in Italy), very moderate landing fee.
Glider base
Landed there as it is just across the fence of the ITER research facility. General impression: busy, windy & French. There are hundreds of sailplanes, several clubs, many hangars, three runways (depends on how you count them). People are very friendly & helpful, but do not expect too much English there. They understand English on the radio but do not reply (neither in English nor in French), so you should look out and behave. No landing fee, no complications, but also no taxi phone numbers, no easy transportation service from the airport to the nearby Manosque. Will come back.
Cute & pleasant
Nice small airport, VERY friendly people, nice restaurant, gas, no landing fee. What else do you want?

re: Memorable (but short)Summer Job
My name is Tom and I used to work there also (I think it was 1969 or 1970). I too think that Milt was a great guy to work for. I also remember an instructor named Rex Beach who worked there and lived in a rental near the airport. Those were the days. The Turbo-Commander I remember once belonged to R.A. Bob Hoover and I got to sit right seat with the pilot once. That was a memory that will live with me forever. By the way - if you go to the latest version of Google Earth - they have the capability to show satellite images from back to 1999. If you turn off the roads (which shows the new ones) - there is our old Berz Macomb Airport in all it's glory.
opening hours
A website that does not say what hours the airport is open is not a very useful website

I HAVE A QUESTION FOR ASK U ?? I CAN ASK IN THIS COMMENT?
re:Chris Wise
Well, this is going to be interesting, so sit back, take a breath and let's see where this ends up.
It is now after 17.00 hrs and I write this after deliberation re a phone call that I received at about lunch time about this site with much glee on the other end of the phone.
So, my name is Chris Wise and I operate out of Aldinga.
I have posted one article on this site where I did say that we should leave this all alone and enough said.
Now to the nitty gritties and let's get in the open.
I do not get on with the operators of Adelaide Bi Planes and they do not get on with me. Nor do I particularly wish to get on with them.
It is a well recognized fact within the aviation scene around South Australia, and indeed interstate by some, that they have dobbed others in to CASA without any prior "sorting it out" with what they perceive to be wrong with the alleged offender.
And yes, they did attempt to dob the delightful people, Mick and Di Hart from Port Lincoln and as am led to believe with great authority, told CASA to hide in trees and observe what goes on at the Hart's Sky Park. Not nice. Yes they did dob young Pat Crowther without any sorting it out. i.e Mate please do not come back here and do that sort of flying end of story. No grief for the Crowther family.
Yes they did, as I am reliably informed, dob me in for aerobatics below 3000 feet but saw their behind as they were unaware of the fact that I have a endorsement to 1500 feet.
Yes they did abuse some for what they perceived to be a beat up when a guy did a go around. Yes when Mr Smith came to Australia form England, they did say that our Australian flying culture is crap and that they were going to change it and yes they are, not in the manner that blends in with our delightful culture.
So I have been vocal about this in the past to the extent that the board of Aldinga Aviation had their solicitor write to me about my comments which were in no way directed to the company, but Adelaide Bi Planes.
It is my opinion that in the past some of the directors on the board of Aldinga Aviation may have been protecting them.
And of course, I am led to believe that the list goes on.
However. There has been enough bulldust posted on this site and maybe with a bit of luck Adelaide Bi Planes at Aldinga may have come to realize that the Aviators in Australia do not appreciate people going to CASA rather that sort it out. They may also finally realized that their holier than thou attitude is not wanted.
So I would suggest that if the Mob at Adelaide Biplanes have an issue with someone, then they should go to that person and address the perceived problem and if required and warranted tell the person that they are running a flying school and do not appreciate that behavior as it sets a bad example wha wha wha, They would command far more respect.
Double standards. Yes there are as any honest aviator flying out of Aldinga will tell you. I have not been there for a while so that may have changed, But not according to the post re aerobatics below 3000ft with paying passengers.
Sadly Aldinga HAS got a reputation as a place to avoid. How do I know this. I know locals and people interstate who are of the opinion that the pleasure of participating in fly ins to Aldinga is no longer a pleasure as one never knows if one will be abused or Dobbed in.
So now. Aldinga Aviation have just recently had a change within the board and we as shareholders now believe that we have a board that is there for the shareholders, not just the interest's of a privileged few who could do no wrong.
This board, now comprises of progressive and positive board members who without doubt wish to act in the best interests of the shareholders as a whole and to act for the best interests in the shareholders aerodrome, Aldinga, and to move forward constructively and fairly.
With this in mind, should there be anyone who in the future is not happy with the attitude of the tenants of the airfield, Adelaide Biplanes, then I would request;
(1) All the comments on this site now be done with. Everyone has clearly had their say and there is no more to be said.
(2) If there are any further incidents whereby aviators who operate at Aldinga or who fly in to Aldinga, that may occur between them and Adelaide Biplanes which is not cosha, then please in the 1st instance for all to act as sensible grown ups and solve the problem amongst themselves without anyone running to CASA.
(3) Should there be any occasions where somebody considers that they have been victimized or dobed in or any such like by the tenants, I would urge those people to write to our board who will, I can assure you, take the middle road and adjudicate fairly.
This keeps it all nice and tidy and with a bit of luck we can all move forward in a friendly progressive manner. (Except for Adelaide Biplanes and myself) They leave me and my mates alone, I leave them alone.
I read the article about the anonymity of the internet and decided to show my testicular fortitude and have my say and to me, that's the end of it. Let's move on and see what happens.
The horse has been flogged to death.
TZO - Bristow Decommissioned
TZO 251 kHz has been off air since March 2006 and was decommissioned July 2007.
re: Local Pilot
Isn't the internet also just great to be able to expose those who anonymously dob people in to the authorities without any due thought to the hurt and anguish that they cause by such low un Australian attitudes that they extend toward fellow aviators.
Nothing bigoted or small minded about that. Oh and by the way, who is hiding behind anonymity?
re: Fier beware
That's the Australian way cobber. Give people a fair go awright.
These people were welcomed to Australia, and remember they choose to come here, we did not ask them, and we gave them the biggest fair go that they could wish for.
Then they attack our flying culture, dob fliers in to CASA but have the attitude do as we say, not do as we do.
Two standards cobber. No fair go cobber.
Seems to me where there is smoke there is a fire and there sure as hell is plenty of smoke.

customs guy took some of my stuff to give to his wife
I was travelling back to vietnam for christmas (i am an expat), and I brought a lot of christmas presents for my friends and colleagues. I was on my way out when the customs guy ordered me to open my bag and when he saw the goodies he said I had to pay for bringing in those stuff (they were trinkets, random things really). I told him I wasn't selling them, and that they were gifts (very obvious because they were in little bags). He picked 3 really nice items and he asked if he could have them. He had a really cheeky smile on his face and he said he was gonna give them to his wife. Which was really annoying because it was either pay up, or give me some stuff. My hands were tied, and i felt like i was mugged. seriously.

re: Notorious BI Clark Officers
This is still happening. 01 May my girl friend of 2 years was not allowed to leave the country when we attempted to go on Holiday to Hong Kong for 3 days. The decision by the immirgration officer wasn't given until 5 mins before the plane was scheduled to take off. When she told the officer that here job was as a Waitress, the officer accused her of being a prositute. Hmmm....I wonder if I would have offered a VIP fee, would she have been allow to go. Something is Rotten at DMIA.
DATIS
Is there anyway to get BIAL DATIS on the phone ? Delhi has this facility and it is really useful especially when the weather / visibility is marginal and you want to keep track while at home or on the way to the airport. Delhi ATIS is available through IVR on tele no. 011-25653081. Thanks

re: Local Pilot
What a pity the internet allows the small minded, bigoted nasty, whinging people of the world to voice this purile trite and hide behind anonymity.
Worried.
I am planning to travel at the end of this month. I'll be attending my cousin's important event in her life. But I'm so worried about everything I've read here. I have the important documents from my cousin but still, I'm very much worried. :(

Wala po mangyayari sa mga complains natin kung walang magpiprint at magsesend ng mga ito sa kaukulang tao sa clark. Marami po masisearch online puwede masulatan na tao sa airport sa clark at kailangan niyo isulat complains niyo at iypost sa kanila. Marami napo silang complains at kung isama niyo sa inyo in proper letters makakatulong masugpo sila.
Frequent flyer po ako sa maraming bansa, UK, Europe, USA, Asia and Middle East. Sa Clark lang po ako nakatagpo ng bastos na Immigration officer. Small time small mind po kasi airport. Papunta ako Bangkok, unang 3 seconds pa lang pagharap ko sa Immigration officer, di pa niya ako tinitingnan, ang tanong niya "saan ka pupunta? Pupuntahan mo kabit mo?'. I looked straight back at him maybe quite challenging because of my shock and disbelief. I think he expected me to joke and just take it. Hindi naman po ako bastos magdamit. Di naman makapal magmake-up. Even if I was, no Immigration officer is allowed to be rude and unprofessional sa remark na ganoon. Hindi ko naman masisi sarili ko, this is how this person was brought up, lacking of decorum and respect sa kapwa tao. I can't even begin to think how he landed his job. I'm sure kumpa-kumpare. He was maybe 50ish. Very arrogant. Dahil Hindi ako natuwa sa very inappropriate unprofessional remark niya, he sent me back to get my return ticket printed. I was showing him my return ticket on my blackberry. Kapag nakakaintindi po Immigration Officer, they know how to look at a real eticket kahit nasa email. It has reference numbers and confirmation. Sa Manila airport, at overseas po in our modern times, madalas po dinidiscourage na pagpiprint ng eticket to be earth friendly. Avoid unnecessary printing--pero Sizemore I don't expect naman this modern thinking na gumagana na sa airport so anyway, I went back out sa airport. Some one hour looking for a printer siguro while im trying to control my anger sa remark ng BI na ito. Wala namang shops doon. Finally I found a friend who happens to work as a Security Guard with Cebu Pacific. Pinagprint niya ako sa office. I printed it, pagbalik ko, wala na ang arroganteng lalaking immigration, tapos di na ako tinanong ng return ticket nitong bagong naka duty. So I managed to fly out. Di na ako sumakay sa Clark from there on.
Touris visa po, sa Manila airport in my 10 years of flying as tourist to so many places, di kailangan at di hinihingi ang Invitation letter from whoever your visiting dahil Tourist po kayo--lalo kung pupunta lamang ng 3 to 7 days or similar sa Hongkong, Thailand, or similar Asian countries. Kailangan lamang po, return ticket, tax paid, passport valid 6 months at ang return ticket. Ako po, kahit ang hotel where I stay in hindi na tinatanong o hinihingan ng print. Pero iyready niyo po. Whether OFW kayo o hindi, kapag Tourist lamang sa Bangkok halimbawa, wala po ito relasyon sa sa mga OFW documents niyo. If you don't need to mention that, Kung kayo ay papasyal lamang, then no need to mention or show any of those OFW related documents dahil lalo lamang nakakalito. Hindi po ito pagtatago danil your going out as a tourist.
Sa mga talagang tourist lamang po, mga girlfriend po ng Foreign Nationals, yun lamang din po kailangan niyo. Return ticket, hotel booking, passport, wala po visa kung Asian countries lamang. Ni hindi naman po dapat kayo hingan o kailangan magpakita ng pera. Wala naman po kinaiba sa turistang pinoy na walang bf o asawang puti, pag tourist po, tourist pare-pareho at iisa requirements.
Problema lamang po, ang kamangmangan at pagkatakaw sa power ng mga BI sa Clark. Sa NAIA na lamang po kayo, kanit na marami ding anomalies, mas monitored naman kaysa sa Clark.
Isulat po niyo mga Complains niyo, Tagalog mas mainam. Siguraduhing ilagay petsa noong nangyari, ilista mga dokumentus na inilabas, at pangyayari at pangalan ng BI. Iwasan po magsulat ng emotional para iyaccept as objective ang complain ninyo kung kayo ay susulat ng proper complain. Punuin lamang po ng facts (petsa, pangalan ng tao, saan papunta, ano ang nangyari at ano ang nasabi, magkano ang nagastos).

V- Hire @ Taxi Fares
Can the government regulate the fares of V-Hire vans from Bacolod City to the airport ( and vice versa). The current fares in going to the airport via V-hire vans from SM terminal is P100.00 pesos which has the distance of only around 22 kilometers. While going to the city from the airport is P150 pesos which is really to much!!! Those taxi drivers also waiting outside the arrival area demanded extremely high fares,they don't to use the meter on their taxi! So sad that these kind of people creates a bad impression in your airport at saka ang babastos pa ng mga drivers!!! I just don't like the way they transact business with the passengers.
I think it is better that the government shall provide a shuttle service for the passengers with a reasonable fare...
they are all laying
