re: Airport of Oktyabrskiy
Thank you. Corrected.
Airport of Oktyabrskiy
Airport of Oktyabrskiy in fact situated in Republic of Tatarstan. River at photo is a border between republics. Oktyabrskiy city is at right bank, airport is at left bank.
Public Transportation
There is public transportation. A city bus (stop at a 10 mn walk) with regular schedule rides to Versailles, and from there Paris, by train.
any updates about re-opening of Ma.Cristina Airport....
i guess it's a good thing to have the Balo-i Airport re-opened.it's not just good for Iligan City but for the whole Lanao Del Norte and some parts of Lanao Del Sur esp. Marawi City.based on passenger load in Cagayan De Oro Lumbia Airport,Lanao area comprises some 40-50% of passenger share,which could easily equal to 2 daily flights using modern turbo-prop aircrafts being used by major airlines in the country.the problem with RPMI is the security within the critical radius wherein the aircraft approaches the airport,as it has not been deemed secured yet.but overall,even if an international airport is coming soon in Laguindingan,i would say if Balo-i airport is open for commercial flight,then why would i travel more when i can fly from a nearer airport.hoping that some local leaders with great visions for the good of the whole Lanao areas would give some effort to have the airport re-opened.i guess the likes of Gov.Khalid Dimaporo,who's young with great plans for Lanao Del Norte could be a great instrument of re-opening the airport.and it's good to know that somebody from the Congress is trying to make a policy proposal about re-opening the airport.anyway i have info for RPMI although limited but i guess this would help a bit.i'll just e-mail it to you in a moment.

Reply to @ptomblin:
By the way, this scam not only involves puppies, but also parrots, monkeys, snakes, kittens, horses, and many other kinds of pets and animals.

History
While Waltham was founded in 1928 as the de Havilland Flying School. The RAF took it over in 1938, and it served as the home base of the Air Transport Auxiliary during World War II. The field stayed in RAF hands until 1982 (Prince Philip learned to fly here in 1952), and is now home of the West London Aero Club, with ~150 light aircraft based on the field.
good infra
very bad to see this city hasn't got a decent civil airport like jamshedpur . the authorities must look towards this as a challenge. please a build a civil airport for there are so many people here capable of going for airplanes and cannot do so just because of unavailability of it and go to ranchi and kolkatta.
re: country
I did adjust the airport position based on the sat view, though.
re: country
The satellite imagery is by Google. Talk to them.
re: Mt Mayon

re: gosh!!!!!!!!!!!!
This CAMEROON AFRICA PET SCAM is a well-known scam that has been going on for many years and is all over the internet. Do your research on this CAMEROON AFRICA PET SCAM before you send your money to Africa for a puppy (or monkey, or parrot, or kitten, or pet of any kind) that doesn't exist!

KBBD (Brady, TX)
My home field. cheapest fuel within 100 miles. Line service 24/7 when coming in after 20:00 central time call for service. AWOS 118.375 No self serve fuel but they do have trucks for 100LL and JP8 (jet fuel) and also have 4 Helicopter pads. Free coffee, WIFI, and computer service. If ya have a cell phone other than AT&T it wont work. The airport manager and Line manager live on the airport. If ya have bad service let me know and I will take care of it. The airport manager is my father.

re: 2 Bulldog Puppies
If you "Bing" image search bulldog puppies, I know you will find the same "picture" they sent you. They just do a cut and paste job. I mean use your head, Bulldog puppies go for $1,500.00 to $1,800.00 !
Who is going to give one away....even to sell the dog for $1,000.00 is low.
The whole idea is to suck you in with a low fee, then keep after you for more
I have a bridge in NYC lookin' to sell, and you sound stupid enough to buy it!
WISE UP
Friendly people
The security guards before we got to check in taxed some cigarettes off my friend who had quite a few packets left. Pretty funny, but they were really friendly, so what do you do?
Maccas outside was much more affordable than any food options on the airside, and all the shopping prices are quite inflated compared to on the street.
We got stuck with a flight delay here, so ended up going back to Kuta beach for a couple of hours before returning for the flight. It's close by and cheap to get to.
Quite developed
I was surprised at the development of Chengdu's airport. Very modern, light and airy design - shopping and food options, some quite nice and not too expensive.
Plenty of fruit stalls before check-in to stock up on the local favourites also.
New terminal just opened April 2010
With all the preparations for the 2010 Shanghai World Expo, Hongqiao Airport got a new terminal!
All very flash, with new connections to the line 2 of the subway which will also take you directly (in an hour and a half I've heard) out to Pudong International Airport.
Would be great to see more regional flights flying into Hongqiao in the future.
11 terminals?
I've only been once, but was shocked at the condition and arrangement of this airport.
11 terminals? It seemed more like one big long mess, no real distinction.
Very disappointed with both duty free shopping and any dining options.
BUT they were in a state of renovation when I came in and out of LAX. Hope that this can be finalised eventually!
a yorkie puppy named cuby
this is so sad. i paid 150 dollars for a dog and then he tells me that i have to pay for the insurance fee to heree. i was gonna pay it tomorrow!:(
Ed Gorski
Wow, cant believe I found this sight. I worked for Ed in the early 70's > I did everything from sweep the runway, to washing his car and loved every minute of it. Instructors were great. Arnold Kufta, Tony Farrel, Bill Reda, Bill Feddishon, Daine Sutton, and Chuck Smith. What a great bunch of guys. And their was Lucifer the cat. He used to catch mice in the field and bring them for Ed. Ed loved that damn cat !! Many good memories with Wayne W. hangin in the commander, breaking into the furnace room and buying those bottles of coke, and lets not forget driving the go carts down the runway on lousy weather days. Would love to hear info on any of them guy

re: Facilities
That is, the runways have been resurfaced since the Google photo with all the cracks.
Facilities
Nice paved runways, only place around here where you can buy fuel with a credit card. $50 after-hours callout fee. $65 after 11 pm.
Rectrix
has to be the nicest FBO I have ever seen - treated me in my Skyhawk like the Gulfstream right next to me. I will go back there just to give them my business.
Columbia County
Not a bad place - nothing fancy at all. Winds get a little weird I think b/c of the proximity to mountains and the Hudson River Valley. Nice people, didn't really seem to notice us as transients though. Cheap gas which is nice. Surprised that they didn't have a weather station other than local AWOS. No PC or internet. Quick stop is fine though.
Take a Pass on this one
ASOS was off line during approach. Landed b./c my passenger needed the bathroom. Thought I'd get some fuel as well. No dice - closed on Sat and Sun!! No self serve fuel. Guy that was there told us he got laid off and used to work there - let us use the head, but no gas. On the way out ASOS was working - must have turned it on. Wow. ASOS message said no services on weekends. What a dump. I will avoid this place like the plague. Maybe if they sold some gas - the guy would have had a job.

Cheap flights to Radomir/Bulgaria - a cheaper alternative to
It will be perfect when Ryanair will also offer soonest cheap flights to Radomir, which is very close to the health/spa city Kjustendil, the city of Pernik, the Blagoevgrad area, the recreational areas of lake Pchelina and lake Studena with some rural tourism and of course the City of Sofia.
re: 2 free yorkie puppies
omg i almost got scammed the same guy was emailing me and i set up arrangments for the puppies to me shipped out to MASSACHUSETTS and i was sooo shocked of the fee i would have to pay i thought it was the greatest deal ever $200 for two puppies soo i came home to look up the airports number and i ran into this site IM SOOO HURT AND RELIEVED AT THE SAME TIME :( :)
Billy Bishop - isolated from town
Nice enough airport but not if you are hungry or wish to spend some time and money in Owen Sound. No courtesy car, no bicycles. Pay for cab is only way in and back. Typical Canadian airport, town ignores it as a tourism draw. Good news is that Wiarton "CYVV" is nearby and they get it, car, bicycles, food and friendly.
re: 2 free yorkie puppies
So did you give him your information like your address and phone number?

β Anonymous Flyer at New Liskeard Airport, Canada
Reply to @bcrosby: Have landed there 3 times on fishing trips to Lady Evelyn Lake. Was planning another this year and discovered the closing. John was a good man. He even flew out to the camp in his C180 and took us fishing on a remote lake about 40 miles W of our camp. (Island 10) It was a poor day of fishing but like they say "It sure beat not fishing". Enjoyed it. I had an old '64 Mooney M20E.
