Runway info
Can you tell me the length of the runway?
Boca Chica
Worked there (1952-1955) in the tower as air traffic controller. Highway 1 went through the middle of the base then. It can still be seen in the map. Had 5 or 6 blimps then. Located between runways 31 & 25. Watched the transition from radial engines to jets. Used to request the jets to make a low pass down the runway when traffic was light. One woke everybody in the barracks across the road one Sunday morning.
Kenge
Kenge airport is spengetastic!
I had a flarking good time in the Duty Frenge section and the
securitenge guards were really monge.
Only area of slight criticism is I would have liked to have seen
some more flunge available. I like flunge.
re: amravati airport..
there are lot of pending work in amravati city as the government has not provided the required funds for the work,
amravati airport work, amravati narkhed line, amravati sez,amravati nagpur 4 laning of nh-6,textile park in amravati sez,rail wagon repair factory etc, please inform the government of maharastra to complete these works as early as possible. amravati sez is still waiting for the industries as the email address is not working which is the only option to contact amravati sez. only a missile unit and a thermal power plant has acquired the land in the sez.
Fun!
A fun place to fly, GREAT FBO! Had a starting problem and the local mechanic dropped everything he was doing to help, got plane started so I could go home...
Museum
Aviation museum on field, nice day trip!
Great staff!
FBO open 8a-8p, 356 days. Fabulous staff, crew car available. Hangared my plane here 2 years, often lowest fuel prices in Piedmont area.
Good airport
Ostergard's is a well-maintained private strip, made available to the general flying public out of courtesy. Being part of that public, I can only appreciate that - as there are few non-restricted airfields around Calgary, and Ostergard's airport is located in such a beautiful corner! Right between the canyons and the wind farms, both panoramas are just awesome...
Runway is in a very good shape, approaches are clear, and the airport is reasonably easy to find - though I believe that one must expect significant crosswind many of the times. I liked how the northbound runway drops right after the edge, and I enjoyed taking off southbound - towards the wind farms.
Location itself is definitely not a place to goof around - one could clearly see that people live and work there. But I'm glad I visited Ostergard's and hope to be back at some point.

The website has the hours of operation and the menu.
Anybody flying up this week?
I've got a friend looking for a lift from Indianapolis on Tue or Wed 7/4/2012. Thought I'd give this a shot for him. Thanks

NO LANDING STRIP ANYMORE!!!
Since the start of the Skorpion Zinc Mine (since 2002) 25km North West of Rosh Pinah, the landing strip in / close to town has become a normal street with speed bumps in town. No aircraft can do a safy landing there between the houses at all.

re: Aircraft times/arrivals/departures
What kind of listings are you looking for, and in what order?
re: amravati airport..
governement is and it's company madc( maharastra airport developement company) are focused on shirdi airport and solapur airport why not amravati airport, on the website of madc they have specially mentioned about the stage of developement of these airports, see it shows that how the officials of madc are afraid of western maharastra leader. everything about the solapur and shirdi airport is specially mentioned seperately mentioned on the website, this what happens in maharastra that's why there is no developement in vidhrbah ex: nagpur,amravati,chandrapur,akola,wardha etc.

Mr. Kumar, we are having a lot of hope
Gaya Airport is one of the approved international airport but flight frequency is NIL why? In-spite of making a lot of promises, your gov't is also failure to do things as like others. I don't think you are successful chief minister if the things are only on plan not to implement. Day by day city is rising by infrastructure/revenue/education wise but why air transportation system is hell in Bihar. Patna understand having space problem but why not in Gaya?
helicopter ride
I was wondering if anyone knows if there are helicopter rides from downsview. my son is having a stag and we would like to get about 5 guys for a helicpoter ride. If anyone knows please contact me @vbalenzano@rogers.com The stag is on July 14th ,2012. No alchol involved.
Dorval Customs Cattle Line
Going through Customs at Dorval - after you've walked through the maze to get in line - is so ridiculous that we no longer fly into Dorval. We would rather fly to an airport across the border and drive through customs. Much more relaxing and car rentals are much, much more reasonable than at the Dorval airport.

Bar Restaurant
Surely the best bar and restaurant in the UK.
Question
Can I flight to Cartagena Colombia from Enrique Adolfo Jimenez Airport?
Telephone system
Walang operator na sumasagot sa mga tawag.
re: amravati airport..
government must take efforts to provide land to wagon repair factory ina amaravati as soon as possible as it is around more than a year they are not getting the land in less rates and the government is not ready to pay the actual price of the land to farmers in amravati city.
re: amravati airport..
before some more industries come government must start constructing a dam on tapi river in dharni taluq of amravati district.
re: amravati airport..
amravati sez is also not able to attract industires as there are problems with the contact email address of amravati sez website and lack of a operational airport in the city,industries minister narayan rane must look into the matter to bring some industries in amravati sez, the already announced textile park work is not yet started.

re: amravati airport..
these government officials have also become like government. they can not take care of checking and correcting the problem of email address of amravati sez,shame on them.
Nice airport!
I've been to Bishell's for a fly-in and loved everything about it. Interesting short final southbound - passing just by the tree line, touching down on a hill top and then rolling lower and lower... Easy to find, good approaches, no significant obstacles around, the runway is kept neat and clean, airport facilities are in order, people around are simply great - awesome! Loved to be there and would be happy to visit this place again.
re: amravati airport..
from last 1 week i am telling to everybody on the internet i have sent mails to the concern officials in mumbai that the only contact option email address is not working on the website of amravati sez, please check and publish that the email address info@amravatisez.com is not working how come the industry people will contact/approach without any communication.i have sent mail to the respected officials of ministry of industries of maharastra government still the email address is not working this is just like avoiding/ignoring vidhrbhas problems and creating more and more problems in vidhrbha, why the hell nobody is bothered to call or send a mail to the people taking care of amravati sez website, whose resposibility is that, maharastra burocrats are making maharastra and vidhrbha as not fit for setting up industries as they are not bothered, if it is pune,mumbai,baramati they will rectify as soon as possible otherwise the minister will teach them a good lesson, why nobody cares about vidhrbha, please give us seperate state of vidhrbha we will take care of all the problems vidhrbha is facing due to politics in maharastra.

Memphis Airport - an okay place.
π Sun, 01 Jul 2012
β @I.Fly at Memphis International Airport, United States
Spent three hour layover at Memphis International Airport - Home of FEDEX. This was a really simple place to navigate and, for an airport, it was immaculate. I have seldom seen such shiny floors. Restrooms were all clean and well serviced. I have heard lots of negative things about Memphis so I was not looking forward to this stop. Fortunately they were mostly myths. The only real negatives were the Delta employees. Everyone to the man seemed to have a chip on their shoulder. Snippy to the point of RUDE. But...that was only Delta employees. Everyone else was unusually polite and friendly. Shopping was pretty good for an airport and there were many varieties of food vendors. All in all, not a bad stop...next time I will fly someone other than Delta.
