First visit
Was asked to leave as this is a private airport and I was trespassing.It seems as though the local Airvac Service is running the show with the cooperation of the sheriff. No one attending and no 100LL.
Re: Stupid Question :)
As there isn't a scheduled air carrier that serves the Pembroke Airport, the only legal way of getting your friend out east and back would be a charter flight. That would start at about $10000 for a small piston powered aircraft upwards to $50000+ for a jet. If that interests you, search for air charter in Ottawa, Montreal or Toronto. Otherwise, you might look into a limo to the Ottawa airport and then Air Canada or Westjet.
Airport information - flights to Durban
Do you fly to Durban or Johannesburg?
What are the costs?
Stupid Question :)
How do I or is it possible to have someone fly a friend to newfoundland for 3 to 4 days and then pick them up. Just wondering how much something like this would cost, and where would be a good starting point to ask around?

Chilko Lake Airport
Unless there is a strong wind from the lake, use a north bound approach and land uphill. With a strong wind from lake, approach from down river, stay close to the mountain, sharp dogleg to the left, full flaps when aligned with the downhill runway. Beautifull area, fantastic fishing, watch out for the grizzlies.

Contact info, hours, and fuel
Air Creebec (Esso) FBO: +1 705 336-3517
Hours: 7:00 am-9:00 pm local Monday-Friday; 7:00 am-6:00 pm Saturday. Not sure about Sunday.
As of 2011-08-21, 100LL is available for $1.98/litre ($7.50/US gallon) + HST (13%). Fuel is generally more expensive up north due to transportation costs, so that's not too bad.
Heads Up
Some pointers:
Watch out for the trees on both sides of the runway as they are not far from the edge (~10-20ft)
Must land on RNWY 31 and take off 13.
Don't try to out climb the hill at the "departure" end of RNWY 31 as you will fail
Please keep in mind of the houses around the runway.
RNWY 31 in up hill which in turn makes RNWY 13 down hill. this is very helpful for braking on landing and accelerating on takeoff
Call before arriving 479-359-3204
Above all. Enjoy the view of Beaver Lake on approach and after Take-off
Flying at Duxford
First flew gliders at Duxford in November 1961 and my last logged flight here in June 1962.
My first introduction to a Motor tow launch.
Was based at RAF Waterbeach at the time and offered a chance to fly a Turbulent. Missed it!! John Delafield flew it though.
RAF Duxford was my first posting as a Boy Entrant (SAC qualified Air Radar Mech) in April 1959.
Moonrakers Soaring Club, RAFGSA
This is where I learned to fly with John Williamson (CFI) and friends, in 1961.

KFEP - Freeport/Albertus - Second Time.
Always like going into Freeport to meet up with the parents. Nice long strip, however it was short field landings today to maintain proficiency.
I live in Liskeard.....
Cool that I found a little info on the airport - I live in New Liskeard and the strip is still in Microsoft Flight Sim. 2004, if it's the same one I'm thinking of. In the sim you get a building and some concrete taxi way and the grass strip and if you take off over the lake you better throttle up and over the trees at the end of the strip - cool stuff.
re: Immigration Officers, Clark, Philippines
OMG.
you're a tourist for 4 days and they're looking for Overseas Employment Certificate?
This is an U N B E L I E V A B L E and VERY DISGUSTING story about these immigration officer in DMIA.
re: Vacation to Hongkong
we should. If we just close our eyes to this, more and more filipinos will be taken advantaged of this confusing system. Hindi pinupulot ang pera pambili ng ticket sa eroplano so sana ang ating gobyerno ay maging maingat hindi lamang sa pag reject ng mga kahina hinalang tao kundi mag ingat din sa pag reject sa mga pilipinong bumabiyahe ng may malinis na passport at visa.
Friendly FBO
The FBO guys were nice and friendly. Airport is about a 15-20 min walk to a number of restaurants. Close to the mountains too, so some great scenery in the area.
Customs
No problems with Customs guys. Called 207-473-7474, 2 hrs beforehand, and they were waiting for me at the GA Terminal (not the Passenger terminal). There is no courtesy car, but apparently lots of car rental companies are handy.

re: Hyacinth Macaw
And contact the sites where you found the scam ads and tell them to REMOVE THE SCAM!
Is this airport still open for flights?
What routes are offered and what companies fly from here? If any...?

Runways are grass. Right hand + right runway mandatory for planes, left hand + left runway for gliders.
re: Hyacinth Macaw
I got scammed for like 700 to 800 dollars dont do it!!! Lets put these bitches to an end. If we all report this to FBI and Districts we will catch them and get a refund! Keep all ya'll paperworks, money-grams and transfer and contact you Lawyers Asap and also show them this sites so they can see how many people were scammed by this assholes. Also try to get this in the papers!!!
Correct IATA code?
Wikipedia seems to think that SXE belongs to the RAAF base at East Sale while the OurAirports DB has SXE associated with both (shouldn't this be a unique key?).
lost items from lugage
I flew home on January 7,2010 a necklace was taken from my suitcase having trouble locating it have done alot of searching my brother works at American embassy there
Still a good airport
Still to many rascals
Routes YJT airport
Site fails to mention Stephenville to Toronto and Toronto to Stephenville service offered by Sunwing Airlines, 737-800
Stephenville International Airport
Best Airport in Atlantic Canada, for runway, and weather conditions. Just wish AC would return or Porter Airlines would consider serving the region with YJT as it's airport of choice. Politics has moved 90% of Aviation to Deer Lake Regional Airport. A government funded airport while Stephenville sits with no funding what so ever.
Moultrie municipal
Its unreal how friendly they are there. And the establishment is one of the most well kept places ive seen in the area. The owner allen is a top notch guy.
re: Beautiful Place!
Reply to @Tony: As far as the approach goes, I agree. I and many other pilots land to the East. I feel it is a much better and safer approach. I assume the recommendation to land to the East is because in the event of a go-around, you may have to head to the right to avoid the rising terrain, and fly out over the river. This would not be a problem unless you were very low and 2/3rds of the way down the strip before deciding to go around. In my opinion, you need to commit one or the other way before that.
If you land on runway 7, you can fly around the corner down the river a ways, and set up a nice base-to-final approach, (of course announcing your actions on 122.9.) Then, you can come straight in on final, and clear the trees, and by the time you get down, you have avoided the extended West end of the strip, which is fairly rough. You can still ususually get stopped by the Ranger Station gate, well before the tiedowns at the East end near the campground.
I would not recommend taking off to the East unless you have a good short-field airplane, and the wind is significant from the East, which is rare here.

Fullerton is a great all around GA A/P. No real traffic problems and when you get on the ground facilities are excellent

Friendliest FBO I've ever been to!
I spent some time in Beatrice on business. Friendliest FBO staff I've ever seen. I landed in 2010 during the summer heat wave, and I was literally dead on my feet after 8 hours in a 100+ degree plane. The woman working at the FBO told me to go inside and get some free ice water and she would refuel my airplane (at the self service pump) and find me a place to stay overnight. They charged me fuel at the self-service rate, even though they put the fuel in for me. I've been back a few times and every time Beatrice is always as friendly as it was the first time.
Support your airport
This airport has only 6 based airplanes and is losing more every year! The town of Wheatland should do more to promote and take care of this valuable piece of real estate!!! You'll be sorry if it goes away and someone in your family has an emergency and needs a Flight for Life to the nearest trauma center. Phifer Field has the potential to be so much better than it is if the town would only take some interest in it.
Nordenbeck Airport disused
Hello,
the Nordenbeck Airport is no longer available. The airstrip is now farmland.

Great Place
What an awesome airport and the guest house right there (Karoo Gateway) treated us like royalty.
Bought gas here
Just a quick stop for gas on my way to Oklahoma from Oshkosh.
VFR limitation
Be careful to VFR limitation. VFR flights forbidden MON-FRI 0800-1800LT.
No way to go around this restriction. Airfield is operated by Spanish AF.
DNKN
the airport is now taking a new-look.
La Morgal WX
Weather is usually affected by low clouds in the morning due to marine humidity condensing on the mountains south of airfield.
In this case it is usually better to descend over the sea and approach the field from N (Gijรฒn). For the same reason departures are easier northbound to climb above clouds over sea.
Useful info
Nice airfield close to Jerez de la Frontera.
Wind is usually strong (ca. 20Kts) but amost aligned with runway. Be careful in case of southern wind (rare). Approach is a little tricky because runway is on top of a hill and ground height difficult to appreciate.
Pay attention to neighbouring LE-R154 (GND-SEA/6000ft AMSL, ROTA AB).
Remember to close FPL by radio with Jerez TWR 118.55 when field in sight or after landing by phone Jerez ARO +34-956150106.
Airfield is usually unattended. Coordinate ARR and DEP with airport manager +34-677428329, +34-619558362, +34-625461216.
