Goulburn Airport
Two Flight Schools now operating,
Parachute operations also operating.
re: Closing all operations
Wikipedia says:
The airport is currently closed to air-traffic, although the concrete paved runway has been designated for use by cargo flights in the event of an emergency. There is an aerospace museum on site.
Warning!
As I say above: no more than the assumption that this airport is assigned code ZWAX.
ICAO "indicators list" assign ZWAX to unknown city "A'xialashankou, China". There is Alashankou (Ala Shankou) railway station in China located at 45°21′03″N 82°25′27″E.
Some info is here : http://www.sourcejuice.com/1350260/2010/07/11/Alashankou-Bole-Airport-ended-without-Civil-Aviation-Maritime-navigation/
RNZAF Whenuapai Whenuapai Aviation Sports Club.
They have a Great Flying Club, Some great people passionate about flying. Very handy location to sneak away to for a fly. User friendly runway, needs a packed lunch to get from one side to the other. Tend to get a bit spoiled for the little narrow ones. Easy to find; bear left a little at the big bridge and look for the big buildings. Watch for the "big Birds" tho.

re: update
Reply to @ptomblin:
Thanx.
I get the occasional weather reports, such as listed below. In one newsletter mentioned codes KQ?? and OR??.
Maybe it's really U.S. military base, which is actually located in Iraq, but has a code of a group of KQ?? for administrative reasons?

Not really an airport
re: update
Reply to @ptomblin: There seems to be evidence on the net that there is a weather station here with the ICAO code KQMG, but since, as I said, ICAO codes starting with K are reserved for the US, I can only speculate that this is a US armed forces weather station, not an Iraqi one. Iraqi airports that have ICAO codes have codes that start with "OR". All ICAO airport codes are 4 letters long, and one or two letters of that code designate the country, so airports in the "lower 48" contiguous US states that have ICAO codes (not all do, some have local codes) have codes that start with "K", airports in Alaska, Hawaii and Puerto Rico have codes that start with "PA", "PH" and "TJ" respectively, Canadian airports have codes that start with "C", etc.
re: update
Reply to @thesis: ICAO codes starting with K are only for airports in the US. Whoever told you this one was KQMG is full of it.
update

this AB has ICAO code KQMG
Airline interested in Beja
Has any one heard of any other Airlines interested in flying into Beja?
re: It needs lighting also!
there should be cheaper flights. considering there are flights in Laoag going to manila for only Php999.
Php2,500.00 is just so expensive.

airport conditions
The airport is very simple to navigate within...it's clean...security and customs staff are polite...departures area has a small lounge with tv...sound is a bit loud, but not really an issue...there is a small shop to purchase duty free...bathroom facilities are available and have always been clean and generally functioning...upon arrivals, fill out the 'entry' card...have 60 U.S. available to pay for your visa...that's if you are arriving from a country that requires a visa for entry into Rwanda...my arrivals and departures have all been on time or within 15 min of scheduled timings...even the one before Christmas 2010 from Amsterdam....there is a small vip lounge...basically, from my experiences to date, it's a decent facility...just be patient and relax...

Ragged Island / Duncan Town airport
I landed at Duncan town on 2/26/2011 with a RV-6 aircraft. I was pleasantly surprised to see brand new pavement on the runway on its full length. Very nice people on the island. Check in with the Police station as you get there to stamp your Transire.
Silvertail restaurant is available on request. Accomodations can be arranged easily with Maxine Wallace 242-225-9641 or 242-344-1526.
Great place to free dive and relax.

Libyan uprising
I have been to this airport, while it is close to the oil refinary it is not worth dying for. It should have just been put out of use.

French Navy was left this airport in 2011
Customs and Immigration
Customs are sporadic but there was no immigration! I only had a voice on the other end of the telephone who told me to leave my details on a piece of paper and shove it under the door!! It made me most uncomfortable not having my passport stamped although she was adamant that aircrew did not need to have their passports stamped!! Fuel is available pay cash and in USD.
Where else to go and practice/learn how to fly???
I am a student pilot as well - learning helicopters. Now I suppose we could have an airport in the middle of nowhere, but how do you get there?? Bankstown isn't close (I live near the City), but certainly closer than Camden. I mean, this is Australia and we fly here. So... where else to go???
Won court battle
This airport just won a lengthy court battle to stay open, but there are some restrictions on takeoffs and landings. See http://www.aviationcadet.com/SWFrestrictions.html for details.

— Anonymous Flyer at Douala International Airport, Cameroon
i wish i found this first my son just got scammed by these same people out of 350.00 the deal was to rescue a parot, yet starpet said that the bird had eggs in their care, that the parrot is an endangered speci and that if we don't send money for vet bills and care of the eggs that they will report me and my son to the ASPCA for animal abuse. Im confused and embarrassed at this point i don't care about the money, i don't want animal abuse charges and i'm confused about the existance and where abouts of a parrot named sandi-did she never exist, or is she somewhere being miss treated.
