re: dont belive in people in cameroon
OMG, i was just about to make arrangement for a cat, is this all true? I was finding if weird that this person is saying they are American but when they type by email they are not making sense.
re: location on map, nice to have in my neighborhood!
It looks like @ptomblin has moved it to the correct location. I'd be nervous using that strip with the trees so close.
location on map, nice to have in my neighborhood!
The location shown is actually about 3 blocks (maybe 1200 feet or so?) east of the actual strip. You can see the strip running north and south. It's quite narrow. Someone built a house right at one end. Rumor has it that there's neighborhood opposition to the strip, but not from me. I've only caught a couple of flights and only one landing (I can recognize the aircraft based there), but I hope to see more. The strip itself is a bit over 1000 feet long, and, as you can see, quite narrow. The trees are pretty high on either side too. WInd directional indication by part of an old water pumping windmill still on a tower.
I understand this is a private airport, and it seems only one aircraft is based there. It looks like an ultralight but perhaps is an LSA. Rumor, from someone who should know, says that Sid used to keep a Luscombe there.
Berz Macomb Airport
I miss Berz Airport every day. I miss all the great folks who used to work there, hang out there, learned to fly there, our customers and the people who flew in and out of Berz macomb Airport.
It breaks my heart every time I pass by that area and see homes in its place. I grew up there and worked there most of my life. I was the third generation in the family business.
It was a business decision to sell. We sold at a good time before the economy took a dive.
Milton H. Berz who built the airport passed away December 6th of 2008. He was an aviation icon and a aviation pioneer.

re: Where was RCAF Station Fingal?
I remember it well. My Dad was stationed there in 1940 before his transfer to Greenwood RCAF Base in NS. I grew up and went to the two room school house out side of town.
dont belive in people in cameroon
dont belive in the people of cameroon because they never send your puppy and they are going to be asking for a lot of maoney for you to be send at some airport and everything is to be send to the same people reciving the money so its better if u found a puppy at your local area because they play with people filings.
EFLL
Grass field for ultra and microflights, length around 400 meters
re: Nice strip
A little soft in the spring but you're right, this is a great turf strip.
heyy
its a huge scam. every "puppy" from douala is a scam. they are all 200 dollars and when u pay it u get an email from the airport saying u now owe 550 for the "crate". dont pay anything! get your dog in america or from a breeder.
Landing
IF wind permits, land to east and take off to west. Avoid fling over school.
Name of the airfield
Name is unspecified.
Sable Island
Not to many people get to visit this place. I spent a month there plus I did some low level flying over it with a navajo.
Landing
A great place to land for a snack break under the eye of Mount Cook
Operations
An awesome airport for seeing lots of USAF aircraft involved in Operation Deep Freeze regular visitors throughout summer are C-17, C-5 and C-130.
Expansion
What used to be a little aerodrome has now got a lot bigger. A variety of aircraft from warbirds to helicopters operate from this airport daily.
re: Why does this helistop exist?
That big building across the street is probably a hospital.
re: North South Rwy Obstructed
Oops, didn't mean to imply that the airport was unusable... The E/W runway is 1800 feet long, and clear at both ends.
North South Rwy Obstructed
Although this airport has a 1300 foot north/south strip, it's pretty much unusuable due to the high tension power lines at the south end of the field.
Why does this helistop exist?
Anyone know why this exists? 06C is practically right around the corner, so I have to imagine that there was a specific reason to build this helipad where it is.
re: Where was RCAF Station Fingal?
You can see the runway outline clearly in the Google satellite view above. Switch to map view for driving directions.
Where was RCAF Station Fingal?
No longer in operation. General vicinity of St. Thomas Ontario.
My home base
Rotterdam airport is interest for private pilots, as it has commercial (mainly 737, F27) and GA (business and private) traffic. There are a number of flying clubs based there, one of which is the largest in the Netherlands with 20 aircraft.
Have been there.
I lived just off the airport for a year. It is a classic small Philippine airport. Love the people of Bagabag.
Geelong
A small airfield adjecent to avalon airfield
Deer on runway
Always deer on edges of runways, great cheap fuel though
Nice quiet airport in Ashland Wisconsin
Log building as terminal - nicely built and maintained
Learned to fly at the Richard I Bong " Ace of Aces " airport
Small well run airport. Be sure to talk to Bill Amorde in the FBO. Bill is a local legend in flying and has FAA ratings as long as your arm. The guy has done it all, Planes, Balloons, Gliders, Helicopters !!!
Location?
I was only 9 years old when we left the area, but I've put a POI about where I think the airport really was. Rumour had it back then that the owner had put everything in his wife's name because he'd been sued over an accident.
re: about the airport
Generally an "international" airport means it has scheduled international service, although some of the small airports around here call themselves ""international" because they have on-call Customs service.
about the airport
in my oppinion,this airport must be an international airport
Bintulu
I'm a student from SMK Kidurong would like to have a favor to my Malaysia airlines system and Air asia. I just wondering , that Bintulu is oil town. I heard Kuala Lumpur , Kuantan , terengganu and Johor bahru always need direct flight to Bintulu. My opinion is ; I just wondering only that malaysia should make 2 or 3 flight from Kuala lumpur to Bintulu and that is for Malaysia airlines . and air asia too.. My friends always to johor. that said. they always transit to miri to get a fligth to johor and terengganu.kuantan.. is also always go to bintulu for their business or oil industrial. My teacher's too always transit to kuching. Because always full when she goin to KL and Pulau pinang.
Closed for years
My Family still owns the Campbellford Airport, however it has been closed since my grandfather retired from flying in his mid-seventies. This would have been 20 years ago or maybe better. Time goes fast when you're having fun!
