Sunday 22 May 2011
Im flying this Sunday from Heathrow into Beja ! Really looking forward to coming through this way as only ever used Faro and Lisbon before.
Airport
Looking forward to flying in there end of July
Facilities
3 good long strips with a little bit of hard standing area. Right on the coast and close to town. Great scenery and only a bit over an hour from Adelaide in a P28A-181. Had a great day out and a lovely feed of fish at the Franklin Hbr hotel.
Hospitality
Flew in from Parafield on way to check out Coorong and the mighty Murray River. Rang George Bland (number in AOPA airport directory) to check on strip condition. Good he said. Easy to find, close to town, and 2 good strips to land on. He even came out to pick us up and run us into town for a coffee and then dropped us back again. FANTASTIC show of hospitality and my overseas friends were most impressed. I will certainly be going back. Lake is full and facilities (clubhouse) all in process of being done up. Less than an hour from Parafield and only an hour on the long way home via Goolwa and coastal to Outer Harbour.
Thanks from Colin

Debra Loving
debraloving26@yahoo.ie... DON'T TRUST HER!!! She said she was sending a sphynx kitten... Lucky for me I do my research. She even sent me a fake pending letter... WOW the nerve of some people
Gun Lake airport
Have never landed there, but been there many times. Very sandy, bit soft maybe, 2000 feet long? Hopefully land there one day.
New Airport
I may be the only one why is it being named Ghandar Airport after a Budhist Kingdom, does not even sound like the airport is in Pakistan. Fatima Jinnah would have been more appropriate.
GA Friendly Airport
A very nice place to land while visiting the Niagara Falls (don't forget to check out the CYR 518 rules before attempting to fly over the waterfall!) Huge pawed runways, lots of parking space, absolutely friendly and helpful people at the FBO and on St. Catharines radio. Pleasure to visit or fly by, easy to find.

Worst Airport Ever
Let me list the reasons:
1)Last flight to Charlottetown always delayed. Always a different reason
2)Ground crew work for the Sopranos - if you land 1 minute early or or 1 minute late, the ground crew needs to be redispatched, forget it if lightning is seens 1000kms away, cus they are not going on the tarmac.
3)Small, dirty washrooms
4)Narrow congrested corridors
5)Terminal A under the tunnel is always sweltering hot
6)Terrrible food selection
re: Cameroon Pet Scam
Did they send you a verification from the airport to confirm your pet was being put on the flight as soon as you paid the ticket ?
puppy scam
Did you guys get emails from the doula airport saying they needed to confirm your information ?
re: Questionable Owners
So where *do* you hope people crash?
Questionable Owners
I hope that no once crashes here
LOT - Lewis - Mixed traffic
Busy field during primary training with mixed traffic. Pattern always seemed full and extending downwind was normal.
C09 - Morris - Quiet Airport
Nice for practice field outside of busy Chicago airspace.
C77 - Poplar Grove - Hard and Soft
Great airport for both Hard surface and soft surface TO/LDG
1C5 - Clow International - First Starts
I started primary training here a long while back.
Home to A&M Aviation - excellent training and services. Thanks Al.
3CK - Lake in the Hills - Blue Skies Pilot Shop
Just an awesome training, flying service and friendly people around.
06C - Schaumburg - Pilot Pete's !
What else to say - nice airport with a great restaurant under a class B shelf
CHN - Wauchula - Night approach
Same night training flight - Moonless, cloudless. Arriving from the south, fire up the PCL, you can see this one from 10 nm out
X25 - Arcadia - Night is Dark
Landed here during night training - moonless, cloudless, landing RWY 5 the runway lights/environment just float is a sea of darkness - needless to say the first landing approach was high.
LEE - Leesburg - Helpful ATC
One of the many airports on my solo XC during ASEL - controllers very helpful even recognizing return flights.
CGC - Crystal River - DQ Stop
Flew into CGC for Solo-XC as part of ASEL. Easy to spot from SE.
Extra bonus - a Dairy Queen adjacent to field, great refreshment after baking in the sun for a few hours.
KMSN - Madison - Wisconsin Aviation treats you very well
Awesome experience for a day trip into MSN.
Wisconsin Aviation had me park the Cherokee right up in front next the bus. jets -
Courtesy car available and clean.
C02 - Grand Geneva -
Another SE Wisconsin trip worth the visit. The resort is upscale and boasts a great lunch.
Town of Lake Geneva is a few minutes away and offers shops, water activities, beach. Just a great place to loaf a day away.
As the former Playboy club property from 1968 till 1983, there is an occasional re-union - how do I know? I just happened to take the father-in-law in for a flight.
C59 - Lake Lawn Lodge - Hope it reopens
A great place just to go for lunch.
Took the family for a day outing to play around the lodge.
Lodge and Airstrip closed in late 2010. I hear the lodge may re-open in 2011. Don't know about the airstrip.
05C - Griffith-Merrillville - Mexican Food on Airport
Great place for both 100LL and Human Fuel (on airport Mexican cafe).
If you're there at night during late summer, watch out for mosquitoes - they are huge and have a big appetite (I had quite the cabin cleanup after smashing a dozen or so).
KPGD - Punta Gorda - Awesome Bay Views
Views of the bay towards the west are fantastic.
X07 - Lake Wales - Lots of Rubber on the RWY
Many tire marks from my primary training at Lake Wales.
A bit deserted but a good place for practice
CDK - Cedar Key - Gulf Front
Awesome little strip just off the water - spectacular views.
Watch the sea breezes.
3D2 For the Day - Very Friendly
Flew into 3D2 for a day trip - lunch, sites.
Friendly Staff. Local business will ferry you between Airport and town or take the bicycles.
Nice Little AP
Like RWY 11, Rgt. Traffic, 2700".
Watch for feathered flying friends on approach.
that's me standing there
we were looking at the work that was just done to the txy.

Saratoga
Hi,
I presently own a Piper Cherokee PA-28 140, with a private pilot license. I am looking to buy a Piper Saratoga Turbo in the US and would like to train on one now so I can get current in this model and can bring it back. I am going in Rochester New York, on May 18, to get my American Pilot License. I have a night rating and I am within a coupe of hours to get my VFROTT.
I would be interested in renting a Saratoga or maybe if no Saratoga are available a Piper Six. And pay for some training on it. Do you or any of your member have a Saratoga (preferably a T-Saratoga) that I could rent or inquiry for rent and training.
