Brief History
Irvingdale Airfield had a 736 meter long airstrip facing NE/SW and a smaller 360 meter airstrip facing NW/SE. The airfieldโs actual name isnโt clear. Appears to have gone inactive after 2020 as maintenance of the strip ceased. A larger airfield is located about a kilometre north.
Brief History
Also know as Tipton Airfield and Heavy Bombardment Field No. 2, Cecil Plains Airfield was built during World War II as part of Brisbane's line of defense. It operated along with three nearby airfields with similar duties, Jondaryan (Brymaroo) Airfield, Condamine Airfield, and Leyburn Airfield. The airfield saw operational use with the No. 12 Squadron RAAF and No. 102 Squadron RAAF.
After the war, it was surplus and the Department of Civil Aviation briefly managed it from 1946 and 1948. In 1961, RAAF Amberley considered plans to open a new bombing range at Cecil Plains, aiming to replace its existing one at Evans Head. However, it was not pursued due to oil prospecting and urban growth. Today, it is abandoned and its runways are somewhat well preserved.

Val Veny Zerotta helicopter landing zone
Unprepared landing area located in the Zerotta valley near La Thuile, at approximately 1500โ1600 m AMSL. The site offers wider and more accessible terrain compared to high alpine locations, with grassy fields and relatively gentle slopes.
Rifugio Deffeyes Helicopter landing site
High-altitude alpine landing area located near Rifugio Deffeyes at approximately 2500 m AMSL. The site offers limited flat terrain, with most usable spots consisting of small, uneven alpine clearings or snow-covered areas depending on the season. A challenging, non-prepared alpine LZ, requiring advanced mountain flying skills and careful performance planning
La Thuile Helicopter landing site
Unimproved alpine landing area located near Lago Verney at approximately 2100โ2300 m AMSL. The terrain offers relatively flat sections, suitable for light helicopter operations, especially in winter conditions when snow cover smooths surface irregularities.A non-certified alpine LZ with good space but demanding conditions. Suitable only for skilled pilots familiar with high-altitude operations no icao

Following the opening of the new Yogyakarta International Airport in 2019, the airport is now only for domestic flights.
Helipad Piedimulera
Located in the municipality of Piedimulera, in the lower Anzasca Valley near Pieve Vergonte, this is an unregistered heli operating site with no ICAO designation.
Operational profile:
Surface: generally firm ground (grass/gravel), more stable than high-altitude sites
Space: moderate, suitable for light to medium helicopters
Environment: valley setting with surrounding terrain but fewer constraints than alpine peaks
Winds: possible valley channeling, but typically more manageable
Usage:
Primarily used for local operations, logistics, and occasional rescue support, acting as a practical staging point between the valley floor and higher mountain areas.
Summary:
A functional, non-certified landing area offering relatively straightforward operations compared to high-altitude sites. Suitable for pilots with basic mountain flying awareness, but still requiring attention to terrain and local wind conditions.
Eliporto Calasca
Located in the municipality of Calasca-Castiglione, just above Pieve Vergonte in the Anzasca Valley, this is an unofficial mountain landing site with no ICAO designation.
The area is typically used for alpine operations, rescue, and logistics, serving as a transition point between the valley floor and high-altitude routes toward Monte Rosa.
Pilot notes:
Surface: unprepared / variable (grass, gravel, or compacted ground)
Space: limited, with surrounding terrain constraints
Winds: can be unpredictable due to valley effects
Obstacles: terrain and vegetation nearby
Operations: short stays only, engines usually kept running
Summary:
A practical but non-standard alpine landing spot. Suitable only for experienced pilots familiar with mountain flying and confined area operations.
Cervinia Heliport
Breuil-Cervinia Helipad (Breuil-Cervinia) is a high-altitude alpine landing site (~2000 m) used mainly for rescue and heliski operations.
From a pilotโs perspective, this is a demanding VFR environment with:
strong and unpredictable mountain winds
significant density altitude effects
limited landing space and no standard airport infrastructure
There is no ICAO code, no ATC, and no IFR supportโoperations rely entirely on pilot skill and situational awareness.
Rifugio Monzino
Rifugio Monzino is a high-altitude, non-certified landing zone at ~2,590 m on an exposed ridge in the Mont Blanc massif. It is regularly used for HEMS and supply operations, not for general aviation.
ISLA DEL MALPELO
Helicopter operations are infrequent and typically reserved for: ARMATA NATIONAL DE COLUMBIA This is not a standard aviation facility, but a high-risk, niche landing zone that reflects the raw and isolated nature of Malpelo. It stands as a unique example of how aviation can adapt to extreme environments with minimal infrastructure.
Name
The correct name is Quetzaltenango
History
The airfield opened in 1918 as Shallufa Aerodrome and provided armament training. It was surplus to military needs and became inactive in 1922 under the Disposal and Liquidation Commission. During the Second World War, it was reactivated for Royal Air Force usage in 1940. Through 1950 until 1954, RAF Shallufa operated as a major training base for the Bomber Command. The base was handed over to the Egyptians in 1955, and the history of Egyptian use isnโt clear.
airstrip closed. please lock in gng
Coopland Landing Strip is not open. It was visible on a 1988 topography map, in a northwest to southeast position, with a aerial view showing a single engine aircraft to the west center of the field. Not only is this a gravel road marked as the airstrip, but it is also overtaken by trees. Unless evidence shows otherwise, ( a lack of info in today's FAA database, and topography maps, ) CLS is closed.

Ward Hunt Island aorstrip
There are no markings, no infrastructure, and no navigation aids. The surface varies between frozen ground, gravel, and ice depending on the season, making every landing highly dependent on pilot experience and real-time conditions. Operations here are typically conducted by highly specialized STOL aircraft such as the Twin Otter, often equipped with skis or tundra tires.
Approaches are entirely visual. Pilots rely on GPS coordinates, prior briefing data, and environmental awareness rather than any formal aviation system. Weather conditions are unpredictable and unforgivingโlow visibility, extreme cold, and shifting ice can rapidly turn a routine landing into a high-risk operation.
Despite its simplicity, Ward Hunt plays a crucial role. It is one of the northernmost accessible points by aircraft and serves as a staging area for expeditions to the North Pole, as well as a support base for climate and ice research on the nearby Ward Hunt Ice Shelf.
There is no room for error here. No ATC, no rescue infrastructure, and no second chances. Every operation must be carefully planned and executed with precision.
Overall assessment:
Ward Hunt Island Airstrip is a raw, uncompromising example of true bush and polar aviationโreserved only for experienced crews operating at the edge of the possible.

Would this be an active aerodrome? It does not look like it! Local feedback very welcome!
