re: Beja airport
Reply to @david: I'm hoping to use this airport if it ever opens as I have relatives nearby and it will save me loads of hassle and expense of getting to Beja from Faro airport.
re: Cute Pure Bred English Bulldog Puppies
Yeh, it's a scam. I just lost $100.00 to the ignorant people. Is there any way you people think we can all some how get them in trouble together if we work on it or is it just to late. I love bull dogs and have wanted one my whole life...people are crude.
re: Beja airport
Does that mean that the airport is actually open to airline service now? The last news I saw (2 November) still mentioned the opening in the future, and the Portuguese-language website still says it's in the last phase of construction (at least, as far as my limited Portuguese skills go -- too lazy to use Google Translate for a language so similar to Spanish).
Beja airport
I went there on the 18 November 09, this airport will not work for holidaymakers that want to travel to the algarve, too far, 10 Euro toll, in the middle of nowhere, what person thought of this airport?
WRONG PLACE.....
First Hand Update
Polynesian airlines serves this airport with scheduled flights within Samoa and to/from American Samoa.
It was recently closed by the government citing safety concerns according to an American Samoan who I spoke to while waiting to take a flight to the other island of 'Upolu.
Better security and a new runway was installed to meet up with government standards. However, since the reopening of the airport it's been used much less by the public. Perhaps they don't know it's open again? Much better way to get to/from Savai'i/'Upolu than taking the ferry.
re: Douala International Airport
It's funny. I responded to an ad from Uncle Henry's. A local book, people buy, barter and trade from. I was delighted to see free puppies! My children desperately wanted a dog. I emailed the ad, and got a response from a woman whose name was Kristine Lee. She stated that she is 29, pregnant and married to Emmanuel Gomia. She stated they were moving and couldnt take the puppies...This whole story about how her grandfather was breeder and she got a dog for her wedding present and these puppies where the result. She then asked me for $100 per puppy. When I questioned it, since they were listed as free, she said I sounded wonderful and she would just send me the dogs....Then I decided to check, since it all sounded a little odd. And here I am. Luckily, I didnt send any money, or give out and information except the town that I live in. I was very basic. Watch out every one...! Her name is changing, but thr story is the samE!!!!
Douala International Airport
hello everyone i been scam by a lady go by the name kim ensminger in all i gave her $226.00 i want to put this out please do not buy no pet from the internet because people will scam you in you will be out of money so dont make the same mistake i made if you dont want to be out of my money
Only Albanian airport with scheduled service (?)
It looks like TIA may still be the only airport in the whole country with scheduled airline service, though there have been efforts to upgrade Kukës (LAKU) and Gjirokastër to handle scheduled service as well. The Italian government was helping with Gjirokastër at one point.
Airport status?
This was intended to be Albania's second airport with scheduled civil airline service, but some of the comments suggest that things aren't quite working out. Here's Google Translate's (not so great) attempt at translating the Albanian-language comments below (oldest to newest):
"Kukes": do not understand why it is not a airoport such work but should be left at the mercy of fate is all north of Albania who can use ......
"uran uka" (uranium boom): The ndertojete airport in Kukes is a good thing ......................................... .............
"Mendimet e mija" (My thoughts): S SOPI GOSTIL
A Arirport so good and beautiful, especially at night by colored lights, and vihvet not at work, there is something good by the state, who have need for this aireport all Albanians of the north and Kosovo .... ...........
"eshte nje nevoj njerezore" (is a human need): would be better that these comments that we are giving, go to the right ear because this is a national loss but also the first time is a precise mosvleresim Albanian government in the management of this airporti. would be a great help for the area of the northern and south western Kosovo wide. and a fact that is very real in economine Albanian, would have enabled many families and help areas for about employing their relatives.
eshte nje nevoj njerezore
do te ishte me mire qe keto komente qe ne po japim, te shkojne ne veshin e duhur sepse kjo eshte nje humbje kombetare ne rradhe te pare por gjithashtu eshte nje mosvleresim i sakte i qeverise shqiptare ne manaxhimin e ketij airporti. do te ishte nje ndihme e madhe per te gjithe zonen e veriut dhe te gjithe kosoven jug perendimore. dhe nje fakt qe eshte shume real ne economine shqipetare, do te kishte mundesuar dhe ndihmuar shume familje te zonave per rreth duke punesuar te afermit e tyre.
re: Need to document the history
One runway looks as though it was 7000 feet long with the others at 6000 and 5500 feet. My guess is military operations during ww2
re: Need to document the history
well what do you know? from satellite images it looks as though it was at one time quite substantial? Was it for the war? How long was it in operation?
re: Cute Pure Bred English Bulldog Puppies
I, too, fell for this ad in the Uncle Henrys, and have been in correspondence with the "Julian and Emmanuel Gomia". I was told they had relocated to cameroon for research on trees whose bark had "healing powers". Unfortunately, I gave out my info, but I did also get some of theirs...
Full Names.....................Emmanuel Gomia
Country..........................Cameroon'
State..............................Littoral
City...............................Douala
Zip code.........................00237
Test Question.................When
Test Answer...................Today
Amount...........................$200
I also raised concern about this being a scam, and asked for their phone number. I was given a cell number which I was told is Emmanuel's cell. Who knows if it really is...
re: scam for yorkies
I was almost scammed too! Luckily, I couldn't read the address on the email they sent as a "confirmation" So, when I looked up the agency I saw everyone's reports about it all being a scam! I got the same story about a mission trip, blah, blah, blah! Thank goodness for your responses! I sent an email back stating I didn't want to be ripped off but a stupid money hungry thief! Thanks to all of you for the head's up!
re: scam for yorkies
I was already scammed, Same story according to yours, her family and her are on a missionary supposedly and when they moved they couldnt take any animals from another country so they are giving them away. They were coming from cameroon and stopping in France. I didn't pay a lot, but I am out $100. Compared to others I would say I am lucky. A friend of mine said it was probably a scam, and when I got an email from the "France" airport, they said that I had to pay an insurance fee, but that it was all refundable. I didn't want to be out $550 so I decided to do some research. Then I found this website, and everyone convinced me. I didn't want to believe but I guess it is true. The bad thing is that i gave some of my information. Now I am going to have to change my phone number.
re: airport
You can get the latitude/longitude from the "Pilot Info" tab.
re: Great!
Is this your airstrip? I saw what appeared to be a Cessna 170 taking off from that strip a few weeks ago. It was some type of older tail-dragger. Was that yours?
airport
how about an address on the website? it would be nice to be able to put that into my gps and just go to it...
Great!
My favorite strip, and the only reason I keep my plane.
Use with permission only! Not a public airfield!
MINE!
General Aviation at Virginia
Controllers are very first world with some very skilled ones and the odd mediocre one. If flying VF take a little time to listen in and try to identify local landmarks used for reporting. Good for Helo flying with two "virtual" pads North and South. New International airport 18.5 kms to the North due to become operational shortly. Unknown impact at this stage.
re: bulldog adoption

Hodges Airpark Breakfast 11-14-09
There's a good breakfast served every third Saturday morning at Bill's hangar, starting around 0800. Lots of folks fly in for this so monitor 122.9 for runway 12 or 30. Park at the end of the row of T-hangars on the SE end. Several of us drive/fly up to Briar Patch airport (9GA1) for the EAA meeting and occasional lunch. Very casual meeting, mostly just meeting folks and talking flying.
bulldog adoption
wow
I'm going through the same thing right now I guess I should of came on this site before to read your comments, I adopted 2 bulldogs and the guy is bending over backwards tryin to make me feel comfortable about this, but I wouldn't send money to him via western Union because I got scamed out of thousands of dollards a few years ago and am not taking chances like that again. but now you guys are saying that if I gave this guy my personal info he will or might commit crimes using my identity?
so even if I didnt send any money I should report this to the police?

Runway at Castillejos
I last used this runway in 1964 when the Cubi Pt. Navy Flying Club used it for training with a Piper Colt. It was unpaved but in good condition and was attended by a man who asked for our flight information.
Runway
I last landed and took off Corregidor in 1984 with 3 American Civil Air Patrol Cadets. I recommend 10 degrees of flaps for takeoff with a Cessna 182.
The same C182 with 4 adults went off the end of the runway and dropped into the bay sometime later.
Beja Airport
Took a drive by last week, not open yet. Does not look like it will be very soon either.

YouTube landing at Treb
First flight to Treb
Flew a 172 D-EVOC from the Fly-in-Spain crew to Trebujena Airfield on 28.10.09. It's the maintenance facility for Fly-in-Spain so lots of short hops from Jerez LEJR to Treb.
re: Gods Country
I also have a cabin on the lake. And if you're a flyer, I think I know who you are.
Clubhouse operational!
Pilots, when flying into Beiseker there is now a place to relax and take a break. The Beiseker airport clubhouse is a volunteer run "terminal" facility. There is chairs to sit in and a washroom in the back. Dial up the emergency frequency to get in the door. Thanks in advance for dropping by.

— Anonymous Flyer at Douala International Airport, Cameroon
hey!I also saw a ad for tea cup yorkies and as we speak the lady is emailing me ........... she want me topay $190 for the transfer of ownership and she and her husband will pay the rest. She wants me to transfer the money in the next 2 hours because their is a fight leaving in 2 hours. I didn't think it was a scam untill I contacted the airport and on they told me there is no fight!!!! I really believed them when I saw the pictures they sent...... this really sucks and the best of all they think they are christians........
