re: Awesome Airport!

Thanks for the comment! I'm glad you also like my favourite airport. I think the Island Airport will seem busy if you're used to a quiet, GA-only airport like (say) Smith's Falls, Brampton or Burlington, but will feel quiet and relaxed (and almost rustic) if you're used to to busier airports like Montreal or Ottawa.

I'd also give it a high grade - 9/10 (reserving one mark because the Porter FBO, while great, is a bit too expensive).

re: C59 - Lake Lawn Lodge - Hope it reopens

Reply to @airbound:

Lodge is opening for business. Airstrip, however is still closed and they were not sure if it would re-open. Flew over on 29-Jun-2011, one aircraft on taxiway indicated field was closed (wondered why they were down there but didn't ask).

Amazing Approach

Saw whales breaching during my descent into Kona! The ocean was sparkling and it was a clear day!

Oh My God, the fish!

I was there yesterday (July 3/11). No real terminal and no staff for fuel. Call ahead or make sure you have enough for a return trip. When you get there, there is a little box attached to the 'terminal' with the guest book. Inside this box is the phone number for Herberts fish & chips. They will gladly come pick you up and drop you off! There are 2 towers on the NW side of the field and a smaller one on the South side to be aware of. This is kind of remote so a walk into town is necessary or arrange something with this fish and chip guys or the local outfitters. And Lord Thundering Jesus the fish! The best fish and chips ever! Yesterday they had fresh whitefish that they catch themselves. They are a fresh fish market that also batters and fries them so you know you are getting the freshest and the best.

5 Stars

Can't complain about anything at John Wayne Airport. It's relatively small and it's extremely easy to navigate through the terminal. Friendly personnel as well.

Unique

I love this airport. Nice facilities all around and unique artwork throughout the terminals makes DEN a worth-while experience.

Nice Airport

Open-style terminal building is really cool and highlights the tropical experience you'll have in the Caribbean.

Easy to and Through

Dayton Intl. Airport truly lives up to it's motto: "Easy to and through".

Hassle Free

For a large airport, this one is easy to get in and out of and I'm proud to call it my home airport. I've never had any problems at DFW.

Great place to learn to fly!

Next time you're in the area, look up Mr. Howard Deevers, a living legend in his own 50 years of aviation. Ask him how "Doc" is doing these days... you might even get him to show you how to fly, sign off on your certificate, take a look at your engine, or help you get your next rating. It's one-stop shopping with this incredible guy!

Floatplanes!

This airport is a busy floatplane hub with specialized hydroplane flying school on site. Lots of them are flying in the vicinity, and landplanes are a secondary activity at Orilla. Runway is ok, though quite beaten and with a pronounced slope westwards. Taxiways are all gravel - careful with your prop! FBO is very well maintained, there is a little snack house with cute patio, and overall Orilla looks like a busy and interesting place to visit - apart from the beautiful water scenery.

No go place

This airport looks like it was closed but the crosses were not painted on the runway ends. Asphalt is all cracked with grass growing through, there are pits and humps all around, and only central part of the airport maneuvering surfaces is more or less usable.

Funny approach to 25 - on short final you almost clip the houses, overflying their backyards quite tightly. There is a pronounced upslope on the first quarter of 25, and overall 07 looks like a safer choice, wind permitting.

There is a bunch of little airstrips and a decent corporate airport close to Barrie, so unless you wish to seriously punish your landing gear - no need to go Springwater.

Flight information

The purpose of this service is that it should be current information otherwise it is meaningless.

re: New English Bulldog Puppy Scam

hi after reading all the posts on this site i am pretty sure me and my husband have been scammed. We were told our breeder is in a comma from a car wreck and the cargo person that was to bring the bulldog puppy to our house was hit by a passing car and killed. We have sent over a thousand dollars. The breeders email was bihmelvis@ymail.com and we sent the first five or six hundred to this info

Name: Wanki Edwin meteminwi

Address: airport road douala

City: Douala

Country: Cameroon

Zip code: 00237

test question: A

test answer: B

then the name changed they said the first guy was on leave so the we had to send it to this info

Name: Moforngong Moses Achiri

but all the rest of the info was the same. I didn't find this site till now and would like to know for sure if i am being scammed.

Stupid bastards! I paid in the Czech Republic nejΕ™Γ­v 3500 CZK 3000 CZK and then, from the original 8300 CZK, which I had allegedly paid as a refundable deposit for the pug, then that would help me at the airport and pay the remaining 5300 and I 3000th They accused me today that I sent the wrong MTCN code, and have remained silent! What do I do now?

What a terrible shame that there is no memorial to the thousands of service personnel who trained under the BCATP in the early years of WW11 at this airport.

Thanks for pointing that out. The correct information has been updated.

Ummm.... This Sucks !

So.. I've been chatting with Julia who is located on Victoria Island in Cameroon @ St Francis Monk House. We've been going back and forth about the possibility of adopting a 7 month old Pygmy Marmoset.... It really does sound legit and so far all she has is my name address and telephone number which she needed to be on the 'papers' for a safe transfer. I must be falling into this category somehow huh ? Bummer... I was actually pretty excited !

Aircraft Rental

Recommend Tropicbird Flight School if you are wanting to rent an aircraft while on the Big Island. They have great aircraft including a 182; a G1000 172 and Diamond 120. Call Mike or Ashley to reserve an aircraft. Spectacular island flying!

Surprising to know this, was it built by the British?

Graet Views Tough Landings

This little airport on the very northwest tip of the big island is probably one of the most challenging landings in Hawaii. Expect a lot of turbulence on approach. A wind farm is adjacent to the airport -- go figure why they built an airport here... No based aircraft or fuel. Enjoy!

Local Food Nearby

Get place to eat just a mile away from the airport -- Seaside Restaurant; on Kalanianaole Ave. Great seafood, a local favorite.

re: Spotting in Bali

Reply to @ktbedy:

Hard to believe, even local pilots are not allowed to take pictures around the airport. They say you have to get legal permission from the Airports office which is quite complicated. Near the south of Bali's VOR-DME should've been a great spotting area. Good Luck !

re: male and female english bulldog (Stacy and Boon)

No airport in dhanbad. Shame on Jharkhand government.

Once I was coming from Bangalore to Dhanbad via flight to Kolkata. In Kolkata, I took train for Dhanbad. To my sweet surprise, I saw, nearly all people in that bogie were the same people who were with me in the plane. I realized that number of flyers in Dhanbad is so huge and we all have to suffer, since we dont even have rail connectivity to bangalore. Shame on Jharkhand government.

Dhanbad (with Bokaro and Giridih) deserves a good airport

Till around 1995, Dhanbad Urban population was largest in Bihar, around 16 lacs. Now, Bokaro is made separate district. Still, Dhanbad is big, as urban population is around 11 lacs and still Bokaro can be included considering its proximity, making this region a really very big urban centre. Dhanbad deserves a quality airport considering this and vast future opportunities in both cities.

Hyderabad is twin cities along with secunderabad. Now Hyderabad has included vast outskirt areas and nearby towns and villages and has become even bigger. It is going to be triple cities with Shamshabad. But they count all population and area in one to show its bigness and develop facilities like internatinal airport. Dhanbad and Bokaro is also very close and together has big population. So, my request to Jharkhand government to do the same.
