Fall 2009 Update
I took a flight over there yesterday and it looks like some progress has been made since the last google earth pass. Will need to keep an eye on this one as an interesting place to be.

re: scam for yorkies
The scam is also for 2 Bulldog Puppies claiming they are doing mission work in Cameroon. They just found out they are not aloud to bring animals into the country from another country and they just want them to go to a good loving home..... Pictures of the dogs are included...... Ads are being posted on Kijiji that is where I found it.....Be very careful don't let them scam you to...
re: Where it all began- ED GORSKI- Great GUY
Reply to @blueskyes:
Enjoyed reading about your Ed Gorski experiences ---I agree, good man!
I can see him again in the round concrete office saying "---hmm don't have enough money eh? --- ok build an airport symbol with a wind sock out there near the runway and we'll start teaching you to fly". That was in 1946 and I was back from 23 missions as flight engineer on B-24's in the South Pacific.
Ed's CFI Steve Bannister #33659 sat in the front of the Piper Cub puffing a cigar (no, really; blew smoke back over his shoulder in my face!) and we were off for "Familiarization, Climb, Glide, Turns, Coordinations" for 30 minutes. It's all right here in my log book that your fine write-up made me dig out -- Cub J3 -- 27056-- Cont 65 --- wonder if they are still renting it out.
After a later solo it was Ed that called me down in what you accurately described as a 'gruff' manner for flying over with rpm way too high!
On a later solo the engine died on final in one of his Cubs --- the telephone lines across the approach (since taken down) raised a question Bannister had not discussed with me --- over the wires or under the wires? --- I picked over and the wheels cleared by inches --- hmmm strange how the wheels get closer to those wires as the years go by.
Ed had worked with Amelia Earhardt at Teterboro and did big things in WWII according to a book on his life --- which is somewhere around the house here --- oh well.
Thanks for your memory stimulating words blueskyes.

This airport was built by the RCAF, in mid 1950's. The runway are in conrete, and is still in good shape. This airport was no longer used and serves now as Dragway for ATV and motocross.
Steinstuecken Helipad
I guess the US finally did something, where were they in June 1953 when we were totally cut off from West Berlin for about ten weeks when the Russians marched in during the East German uprising. It wasn't great to be treated as animals thereafter either nor hearing East Germans being shot by Russians soldiers either. May they rest in Peace.

Diversion turned out well
Was planning to head to southern Illinois, but fog prevented that from occurring. Instead, headed up to Janesville to get some brunch. The onsite restaurant has tasty food and exceptional service. They mention their 'homemade toast' a bunch of times on the menu. We had a laugh about it. Then it showed up. And, you know what, it was actually worth mentioning. Homemade bread, sliced thick and toasted.
re: Nice little airport
Reply to @rw2: Have now done the breakfast at Picadilly Lilly. I can recommend the biscuits and gravy. They have lots of sausage in their gravy. A half order is plenty of food.

Need to document the history
I am from the Dog Creek reserve and have been looking for history on the Dog Creek airport. Other than what my grandmother has told me, I haven't found anythingon the internet - i will change that!! I plan to do something, not sure what, but I will get something on the history of this airport!
Airport is now closed
According to an article on Flightglobal (http://www.flightglobal.com/articles/2009/09/15/332297/fiji-closes-biaugunu-airport.html) this airport is now closed. The airport was opened in 1980 but scheduled services ceased in 1984 when better roads made travel by other means more practical.
Good restaurant on site
Good food and cheap. Right at the fuel pumps. There is also an interesting water runway parallel to the main one.

About the airport and Kapuskasing
Came here on 2009-09-12 for a Hope Air flight in low IMC, right at minima.
There are three significant buildings at the airport. From left to right, looking from the apron, they are: (1) an older white building, which apparently houses the airport's weather observer, (2) a newer building which is the main terminal, and (3) an older building a bit further to the right, which is the Kapuskasing Flying Club. You can tie down for free on the grass at the Flying Club -- the chains are marked with pylons. Even in bad weather, there are a lot of people hanging around the flying club on the weekend -- they're very friendly, and sometimes monitor the traffic frequency (there's no official FSS or Unicom): on my way in, they gave me a warning about a big flock of geese.
I'd originally planned to stay at the Comfort Inn or Super 8, but they're far out of town on the opposite side from the airport. The Park Inn is on Highway 11 (called Government Rd.) just a three or four blocks south of the town's business district and about 5 km from the airport, next door to a 24-hour Tim Horton's (like the American Dunkin Donuts chain, but far more popular) -- the Park Inn is nothing special, but it's clean and inexpensive ($64/night in September with the AAA/CAA discount). The town's business district is centred around "The Circle", a traffic circle with a park in the middle and nice shops etc. around the outside. The shops continue for a block or so on each of the spoke roads.
Unusually for a small Northern Ontario town, Kapuskasing is nice and walkable, with decent sidewalks -- there's even a coffee shop/bistro called "Back to the Grind" on the north side of The Circle. Beware that things close early, though: after 6:00 pm on a Saturday, even the big supermarket is shut down, and you're pretty-much limited to Tim's or the bars.
re: scam? teacup yorkie terriers.
OMG! i am so glad that i read this comments because there was this lady that wrote exactly what the comments says about: please send the money first so that we can send the puppy to you. Wow my mom was telling me that it was a lie and i didn't believe her. Man i am so glad that i didn't send the money. She was going to sell me a teacup terrier, because i really wanted it so i went online and i found the website and got her email and starting writing to her. she was selling it for $150.00 dollars.

re: Landed in Craiova
Reply to @robert: at EUR 130, that's actually more expensive than landing at Toronto's Pearson Airport (CYYZ)! When they set a landing fee that high, it's really a "keep out!" sign.
re: Closed
Reply to @robert: changed LZVB status to 'closed'. Thanks.
re: Closed
Reply to @robert: Updated -- thanks.
