Reply to @nicolai: thank you very much for making the correction.
re: Manhattan and Hudson River Corridor Access
Reply to @willymopit: yes, the landing fee from TEB is annoying, and it's especially a pain for me in Canada, since I have to go to the bank and get a U.S. money order to pay it, then put it in an envelope and mail it to them (they won't accept a credit card). I don't mind the $17, but I wish I could just pay it through the FBO while I was there. I also suspect that billing me and processing the money order probably costs them several times the $17 they collect from me.
re: Manhattan and Hudson River Corridor Access
Reply to @david: Thanks for the input. Speaking of the port authority, I got a bill for $17 several weeks after visiting. I have no idea why, didn't think there were any other use fees except what the FBO was going to charge.
btw, I love this site, so simple, straight-forward, and has been a great resource for creating a large wall map I now keep in my home.
Hospitality at its best
A very friendly welcome, great food at weekends, and remarkably clement East coast weather make Newcastle one of the best airfields Ireland.

re: Fier beware
well flyer beware I seem to remember the Australian way is to give people a fair go - not attack them. Oh well, I suppose its ok as long as you know who you are.

re: A Local Pilot
I feel very sorry for you, I have decided to fly there because of the high standard of airmanship and quality of the flying offered by the flying school. Do not try to say I don't know what I am talking about, I have been around aviation since 1966. I would suggest you take a good hard look at yourself and not be too one eyed about what you see. As for the story about Martyn Smith, you should really get the true story and not make it up from bits and pieces, your real name in the comment would add some credibility to an otherwise sad made up story.
Happy to fly there
jalgaon airport.

Beja - Ghost Airport
No flights, no planes, no staff, no passengers, only weeds growing in the empty car park?
I would like to know more...
I have flown over this several times enroute between KTYL and Yuma and wondered about it - it sure looks nice... but lots of restricted airspace around, with all the military training ranges. What can you tell us about land nearby if you have recently bought property there?

re: Runway Conditions?
Does anyone know a place where I can land my Maule (800' of dirt or small rocks is fine) near Prince of Wales hotel at Waterton? I am staying there for a few days in August and cannot figure out the best way to get there by plane.

re: Cross currents make landing difficult
Hi,
KSEZ was landing number 4 on my long solo cross-country flight during my flight training (my "3 towered landings" x-c: The first 3 ldgs were at Flagstaff, another bumpy, cross-windy airport!)
Most of Arizona's airfields, especially those in the more northern parts, can be windy, gusty, and bumpy - that's just Arizona flying... but if the air was always smooth and always straight down the runway, everyone would want to live here!
Don't let the "SS Sedona" spook you - it just looks scary since it is up on a teeny, tiny looking mesa. But it just ~looks~ that way. (That's how it got the nickname "SS Sedona" - it kinda looks like an aircraft carrier landing...)
Here's the trick to landing there - NEVER try to put it down on the numbers! Land a little long - there will almost always be turbulence and even downdrafts at the ends of the runway - since the runway ends at the edge of the mesa which falls off rather abruptly to the valley floor below...
Come in high, maybe a few knots fast, with a good sink rate and make it a short-field landing. Even though the runway looks small (since it looks like it's all alone up there, perched on a mesa) it really is plenty long and wide. It will probably be windy, so just keep flying the airplane all the way to the tie-downs.
Get it tied-down and visit the FBO - get yourself a "SS Sedona" souvenir ballcap so you'll have braggin' rights. Then visit the new restaurant there - I hear they have good food!
When you are done, go out and make a short field take-off so that you've got a little altitude under your butt before you pass over the far end of the runway - you'll be fine!
Have fun!
Mark
type of runway
rough asphalt runway
too far
dog gammit, this airport is so damn far away!
re: Best aeroclub around.
I agree ,it is great airport.You can use the grass during the summer.Ring the club during winter months for serviceability.runway 17/35 good for x/wind training.Sadly moorabbin airport is being screwed by the government and MAC,so its refreshing to come to Tyabb...Capt Bob
amravati airport developement is a big dream
It's not pune or baramati, hence the amravati airport developement is rejected by maharastra government and and the previous civil aviation minister praful patel who is also from vidharbha but opposes the developement work of amravati airport in vidharbha.only god can do the developement in vidharbha region of maharastra. I hope in the coming 10 -15 years it may complete. ha ha ha jai vidharbha, get a separate vidharbha otherwise ready to loose all the developement work for another 40 -50 years, becoming a part of sanykata mahrastra is in 1960 was a very big mistake, now maharastra goverment is fighting for belgaon with karnataka government but not doing anything for vidharbha. shame on maharastra government.(western maharastra government)
Historic Exhibits
Once upon a time there were several exhibit panels detailing historic moments in aeronautical history in Kingston. They were very interesting. For some reason they were removed and I gather are now in storage. Why? They should be remounted and, frankly, in a more public area than just the security-closed-off departure lounge.
On a related matter - yes, Porter should fly into Kingston. I would make far greater use of our local airport if I could get into downtown Toronto directly. Flying into Pearson and then paying $50+ to get downtown (one way) is why I now take VIA, despite having to put up with commuting times that are much longer.
No more airfield at LFSR

I am excited for the Prince Mangosuthu airport and I can not wait to fly from Johannesburg to ULD. I've been stuggling going to Vryheid as I had to sit for hours through construction on the way with the 40min stop. Please really consider Johannesburg.

— Anonymous Flyer at Comodoro Arturo Merino Benítez International Airport, Chile
Very low ceilings on the way to/from the gates, kind of suffocating. Hardly any mechanical escalators to/from the gates.
