Flying into Springbank
I just flew into the Springbank airport for the first time about 2 weeks ago while on a cross-country from Abbotsford to Calgary. I agree that the approach process is a little complicated, especially while coming from the South (you end up talking to Calgary Terminal, which then hands you over to Springbank), but nothing terrible - if you've never dealt with a controlled airport before, it might take a bit of getting used to, but otherwise it was fine. Calgary Terminal was very friendly - when they asked me to report over a local point, I just told them I wasn't familiar with the airport, and they gave me vectors all the way in. Wouldn't hesitate to go back. Springbank was also friendly, providing ground directions & advice.
Expensive Travel
What would it take to get some competition for flights to/from Traverse City? It costs $300-500 more to fly in and out of Traverse City than other cities within a 2 hr drive.
Complaint
It is a great idea and it is very useful to track flights, however it is disrespectful to keep this kind of information if it is not updated. I checked right now the Avior (9V) 1220 Flight departuring from Barcelona, Venezuela and it appears scheduled, and really it is delayed. and the delay is more than one hour.

Closure why?
It doesn't make any sense that the FAA closed Bader Field. It was a great little airport servicing AC and was easy to get in an out of; no red tape, no long lines, just fun. The excuse of the tall buildings being too close was a load. We used to fly over the President Hotel all the time and no one ever got hurt. I don't think until the Citation incident that there was ever a situation. It was good enough for Lindbergh and the host of presidents and officials. So convenient, a real shame politics had to prevail......There will always be a place in my heart for Bader Field. Check out my latest book "Bader Field" by Carl David.......
re: Bader Field memories
I agree, having had many flights in and out of there over the years with my father. My latest book, "Bader Field" (Nightengale Press) is aptly named because that was the last place I saw my father. There is a good amount of flying in the book. (The cover has a shot of my Dad next to his last airplane (Aztec D) at Bader Field.

re: re: Cameroon Pet Scam
THIS IS A SCAM - THERE IS NO PARROT! ALL OFFERS OF PETS FROM CAMEROON AFRICA ARE SCAMS, WITHOUT EXCEPTIONS!
No info
This site is not designed to provide any meaningful information!
is it the school?
The school have been dobbed in for flying low circuits, touch and go's and general noise! Have only ever seen l/h circuits. Plus there are no local places to stay/taxi service so while she may have seemed unhelpful she was probably just breaking bad news. Was the fly in organised by adl biplanes or the aeroclub? As they say in thailand same same but different!
Bader Field memories
Great memories of Bader Field. My solo flight in 1967 was one my greatest thrills. My first flight instructor was Joe Trappy who also was the GM of the field. Joe also taught my dad at Wings Field in 1945. To think that Bader was closed for "development" purposes just gets under my skin. It was a great place for a kid to learn and grow up.
Jim Duffy
One of the oldest airports
Chennai's airport is one of the oldest in India, and it does stand to that reputation. Enter the washroom and you will be back in 1950s!
The air conditioning is sometimes not sufficient even in the international departure! There is no internet connection availability.
Sheep On Strip
Be sure to conduct a Prec Search & Landing in order to clear the strip.
Old pics
I was stationed at RAF Mildenhall from 1968 thru 1971 and would love to see pics of the base from that time period I cannot find any of my old pics that I made while i was there, I am planning a trip in the fall to come for a visit this fall after 40 years and I know it has changed since then. My email address is james@hcvso1officer.com, I am a veterans service officer helping veterans with their benefits.

Not an airport
This airport marker is centred on Mount Gibralter at Williamsdale which is the first line-up marker for Canberra airport approach.
International Airport in Patna
We want atleast one International Airport must be in Patna, because if we are comming from any gulf cuntries then we have to come via Delhi or via mumbai and to reach our home town atleast we have to spending 30 hour this is to long jurney for a short distance.
Communication
No comm! look out
Pourvoirie Escapade's
Place to land and refuel with no problem,
runway conditions
Be very careful landing at this airport, runway 36 is extreamly bumpy and the other runway has signigicant surface conditions. you will be luck if you don't damage your plane. No courtesy car.
Bring your swimwear
There is a public beach across the road from this great airport that has very clear water. Having to turn around on the upwind side over sloping terrain was interesting. The poutine served at the restaraunt is excellent and the Piper Cherokee "windsock" is worth the trip to stop here.
Business Port
Top-notch business airport. Terminal is much bigger inside than it looks from the outside. There is some GA life in and around, but it is obviously built for the big bucks and biz jets. Unicom is helpful and all the services are in place, just don't expect that cozy feeling of the local aviation community, etc. Lake Simcoe is a totally different category - and aparently a good one in what it is.
Busy GA Airport
Lots of GA activity, scenic location, big runway, well-maintained taxiways. A number of interesting machines parked around - from ultralights to PC-12. Helpful unicom and cozy terminal. Easy to find and nice place to visit, just keep an eye on the traffic!
Good place to visit
Google image is quite dated - currently the airport looks way better! Another runway added and the grass one is in a very decent condition. Ramp and the whole maneuvering area are well maintained and clean. This airport is home for a vintage aircraft restoration group, there are Tiger Moth, Canuck, Baby Ace and other fancy birds flying around. Overall - nice place to visit and check out those magic old planes, and chat with enthusiasts working on them.
respond from PAL
aahahaha pag sure oi..

"United States Ballistic Missile Defense Site at Deveselu Air Base in Romania"
Fact Sheet
Bureau of Arms Control, Verification and Compliance
May 3, 2011
"The United States and Romania jointly selected the Deveselu Air Base near Caracal, Romania, to host a U.S. Ballistic Missile Defense System which employs the SM-3 interceptor (also referred to as the “Aegis Ashore System”). The deployment to Romania is anticipated to occur in the 2015 timeframe as part of the second phase of the European Phased Adaptive Approach (EPAA) – the U.S. national contribution to a NATO missile defense architecture.
The EPAA will provide protection of NATO European territories and populations, and augment protection of the United States, against the increasing threats posed by the proliferation of ballistic missiles from the Middle East. At the November 2010 NATO Summit, the Alliance welcomed the EPAA as a U.S. national contribution to the NATO missile defense capability."

Romania Air Base to Host U.S. Missile Shield
AGENCE FRANCE-PRESSE
Published: 3 May 2011 18:50
"DEVESELU, Romania - Bucharest said May 3 that U.S. missile interceptors would be deployed in southern Romania, a key link in Europe for a defense shield, prompting Moscow to ask for "safeguards" from Washington.
Romania and the United States have been negotiating for more than a year about the deployment of ballistic missile interceptors, which should be operational by 2015.
"We have decided that the anti-missile shield will be deployed at the former airbase at Deveselu," Romanian President Traian Basescu said in a televised address.
Moscow, which fears the shield could be turned against Russia, swiftly demanded assurances from Washington."

Brand New OLD Airport
I think Kyiv did a crummy job on the airport remodel. It is like you have a "brand new" "OLD" airport. What is this deal with buses to airplanes, rain, snow, sleet, hail, etc?
There are so few seats around that it is pitiful. Having generic checkin-counters may seem like a good idea, but is worthless if you are trying to find a specific flight/airline, for example, to just check your bag a little early.
The only good thing I can see is the international departure area, more chairs, and a few resturants that charge in Grivinuias, which are cheap.
Overall, I would only give KBP a 2 or 3 out of 10. It is pitiful compared to Amsterdam, Frankfurt, Munich, Paris, Minneapolis, and so on.
Not friendly
...not a friendly airport at all....stay away unless it is a forced landing.
Funchal airport.
airport located in front the sea. all accomodation, duty free, coffee, taxis stops, parkings lots, cars rental, not far distance from funchal
Nice airport, nice scenery
Went there on a saturday, unfortunately the restaurant was not open right that moment. Nice personnel, no landing fees (was a private flight on a commercial-registered aircraft...).
The scenery is gorgeous with Mont Tremblant not too far.
Customs
20110712 Just checked with Canpass: CPX8 is considered AOE - we can clear Canada customs there
It is going to be a big airport very soon...
HBX airport is going to be much bigger than what it is today.
The land acquisition process has started already.
Great stuff coming up Hubli way.

Runway designation
Why does the information on this site show the runway headings as 18/36 when the satellite photo clearly shows the runways as 13/31 ?
Nice private runway (PPR)
A very nice grass runway in the heart of the Burgundy vineyards. At the East extremity of the runways there is a fabulous Hotel in an old Castle : La Berchere (***). The access to this private field is submited to authorization! Check their website...
customs
does this airport have customs to enter indonesia from
Aldinga Airport

— Anonymous Flyer at Aldinga Airport, Australia
I flew into Aldinga today, took a friend for a scenic flight along the coast and dropped in for lunch. I have always found the people to be extremely helpful and friendly. After our lunch we went back to the aircraft only to find it wouldnt start. The people at the airfield could not do enough to help us, finding me a new starter motor and a LAME to install. I cant talk more highly of them. :)
