SAVE IFNI AIRPORT
IFNI airport was built by the Spanish authority as well as all the city and There was a general consensus among all politicians present and the residents according to the local news that the airport is a vital piece of infrastructure in terms of the economic development of the Sahara region and particularly SIDI IFNI . Hence its has played a significant roll in IFNI Development .
Hence, thanks to the airport , IFNI CITY COUNCIL became the most beautifully progressive city in Northwest Africa, having around 5000 visitors every month, today no more than 100/year. Now, there is a serious threat whereby Moroccan mafia construction companies that want to muscle in and take control of IFNI airport's land .
Some voices pretend to use the airport land to built houses, we think that the city should be built but in the north or south areas: not at our airport's land expenses.The airport was built to remain.
Today most of modern cities have airport, because its a wise tool to bring success, freedom and peace to the residents.
Rumors suggest that the developer behind the idea to close the airport and built houses, is the proper minister of interior and member of his family.
We, the supporters and undersigned of the 'Save IFNI AIRPORT ' petition, call to put a stop to the "airports ministry" destroying project and we urge you to sport legacy, nostalgia and IFNI patrimony.
We request you to join us and say No to the closing and destruction of our airport's space.
Say Yes to keep IFNI airport opened as an operational airport.
Please write to your local representative and invite him/her to vote against this mafia project and to keep IFNI airport opened. Remember that thanks to this small airport the life of USA soldiers has been saved as will as many patients, are evacuated from around the city of IFNI to the city hospital.

The Save IFNI Airport Group will work behind the scenes, we will campaign to save the airport through letters to parliament, newspaper advertisements, radio media, letter drops, television and a variety of other media types. The group will also conduct community meetings around the airport and also in regional centers across Morocco , USA AND EU.

Deserted roads in Alenteja, no crowds, friendly people what more could you want.
Thank you Sunvil!!

Please help spread the theft global, so that the authorities do something about it.
re: IATA Airport Code
Thanks for the comment. We already have "UBP" in the database for http://www.ourairports.com/airports/VTUU/ - do you know of a source to confirm which airport it actually belongs to?
re: Airport IATA CODE
Thanks - updated.
re: Punta de Maisi Airport name
Thanks for the information. Google Maps still shows this as "Punta de Maisi" airport. Is there an official source where we can confirm the other name?

Reply to @Luco67: thanks for that information. Do you know the latitude and longitude of the AUB beacon?
Microlight experience
If you go to Portugal and you like flying in little planes, CVB is the place to go. Professional and nice pilots/instructors and operations people. There's a restaurant in case you want a bite to eat.
Zunigas
My home port. That great little restaurant is Zunigas. They have a great little gar as well--Jesus is there to serve you.

ISIOLO PEOPLE NOW TALKING AFTER MANY YEARS OF POVERTY
First and foremost this is a good news; with the recent development is it possible to see Kenyans from all over coming to work in Isiolo? A new modern City is on making. I also would like to bring into attention some of Isiolo best coming up with ideas and putting up a website to inform people about Isiolo on their own expense can not be taken for granted and those are the forces to reckon with you can check the website at Isiolo.com
Hallo Airport
Funny meaning of RuStaG brought me here!
re: Stoney Creek Airport
Yeah great place to land and chat with friendly aviators. I was in one of their meetings and it included a guest speaker.
That night was about avionics, it was great.
They also had some pretty interesting presentations by Transport Canada, the place was packed, great ground support to land and tiedown. The food was great and affordable.
Great club to join

re: big time scam Prisca_Moore@yahoo.com
Let me guess - next, you'll find out that you need to send $1,000 in legal fees to get the $14,000 in compensation, or they need your bank information to make the transfer.
Unfortunately, the email address is meaningless -- they probably create a new email account for each scam, so the same person might be Joe_Smith@yahoo.com or Jane_Doe@yahoo.com to the next victim.
big time scam Prisca_Moore@yahoo.com
Me and my wife just got scammed by this shit for almost $4500 do not let this happen to you.
The company they used was in beech creek, NC supposedly when it got to the US...supposedly. We then received an email that the dog had died from overdose. we are now receiveing a contract saying they are going to pay us 14000 for compensation of the dogs death.
re: male and female english bulldog (Stacy and Boon)
oh and her email address.....stacynore@live.com. Her name Stacy Norris with Frank Atia
male and female english bulldog (Stacy and Boon)
I was hesitant at first with this whole ordeal, but I decided that I would try it. I called Western Union and they said it was perfectly safe for this transaction. Then, I received the conformation on the flights and then found this website. I got the email like most did about the insurance costs. I emailed them back and told them that I would not pay that over western union. They said they were sending them per Companion Air...IT ISN'T EVEN UP AND RUNNING!!!! I'm heartbroken and even worse it upset my 2 year old....he is devastated!!! I should have known this was too good to be true.

Used to have a grass strip but now only concrete
re: Wrong frequencies
This website isn't supposed to be a substitute for legal datasources like your own country's aeronautical information publications or Jeppesen. It's crowd sourced, which means if you know something is wrong, tell us the correct values and we'll correct what we have.
Wrong frequencies
The communication frequencies are wrong. They are so out of date I WOULD NEVER TRUST THIS WEBSITE'S DATA.

Lovely Aerodrome
Very well maintained airstrip, with good approaches and easy to find, just north-east of Alliston. Northbound short final you literally fly between the hangars - though they are wide apart enough, no risk at all. Lots of nice private aircrafts in a good shape parked around - Luscombe, RV, square-tail Cessna, Cub, Kitfox... Tried to find the owner to say hi, but everything was closed and quiet.
noise compaling
unfortunately this person making these complaints moved in May 2010. The airport has been there since 72. Getting a better real estate agent or looking at a map could have solved their problems.
Can you walk into the skies :-)
We landed there once with absolutley no sight, closed airport due to sandstorm with a Pilatus Porter... no fuel left for alternative... Once we touched down our aircraft, a South African Captain in Duty for the World Food Programm approached us and asked: "Sorry, can you walk in the Skies?
lovley airfield
I used this Airfield for additional Training flights. And once we flew into Lanseria inbound from Maputo - after a crazy 9 day transfer flight of a brand new Pilatus Porter from Switzerland all the way down to SA.
LSZE
great place, great landscapes and clear skies, whenever there is fog elsewhere :-). And a very nice Restaurant too!
Shaheed Muhajireen International Airport
Lets name it 'Shaheed Muhajireen International Airport' in the memory of those refugees who lost their lives on their way to Pakistan in 1947. They left their neighbourhoods, their properties, their businesses all in support of an idea: PAKISTAN.
And I am not a muhajir; my family was always in these parts. But who is more Pakistani than those who sacrificed and jeopardised everything that could be of value (relatives, loved ones and wealth) in order to be Pakistanis.

re: Twin Oaks Airpark pilots harass neighbors
Reply to @david: The neighborhood has been around for 50 years and the airport only 20 something years. It always sounds like it is the homeowners fault but not true, in this case.
The airport has encroached and abused on the only settlement in the area with acres and acres of other land to fly. One pays higher prices in Oregon to live in the country and then the unscrupulous aviation interests slide things by the homeowners.
