re: IATA note
Reply to @animebirder: Thanks for the clarification. I've removed the IATA code from the military base, because it doesn't show up in IATA queries.
Runway numbers
There is no information about runway orientation online. I estimated 07/25 based on the satellite photo and the magnetic variation of 8.5E. Please correct if you have more information.

Nice airport
Fuel pump card control wasn't working but friendly local helped out.
Really nice airport for a municipal airport
Stopped in to drop off a passenger. Friendly attendant and wasn't too scary to fuel up

Reply to @good2see: Corrected โ thanks.
Fixed location.
GAP is an aeromodeling (R/C) field located just to the SE of the larger general aviation airport. Note that it is far shorter than the listed 1969'.

IATA note
Has the same IATA code as Mano Dayak International but is a separate airfield, operated by the United States Air Force.
Update ident
Updated the airport's identifier to match the new icao code
New airport
2km stretch
this article suggested the new airport is a 2 km long straight stretch on a 10km road, so this location seems to fit the bill and matches the coordinates

Somaliland's principal airport
This is the main airport for Somaliland, which is self-governing and de-facto independent, but still considered part of Somalia by the international community.
Closed
User reports:
"Our airport in Outlook, Saskatchewan was permanently closed on December 31, 2020. Please remove from your map. Thank you"
"Closed permanently and the airstrip was disced up"
If it did exist, it wasn't here.
FAA is notoriously bad at plotting correct lat/longs of heliports. This probably did exist somewhere within a 5 mile radius of this spot. AirNav doesn't list RI14 anymore at any rate.
Add the new Air port in Marib City ,in the north part

Private?
Looks like it might well be private aka "personal" - always hard to tell from far away.

The runways are actually 01-19.
no after hours restrooms
doors lock at 5
VIDF - NNS Pithoragarh Airport India
Just a minor info concerning the information received by clicking the relevant symbol in the world map for the a.m. location. Not only is it miswritten > Pithorgarh < but more important it is not located in the State of Uttar Pradesh, but in the State of Uttarakhand. Correction shoudn't be a great deal, should it ?
Nice little airport
Just dropped in to meet someone with tractor parts for me to take home for some friends.
Nice Runways for a small place
Stopped in for Fuel after picking up some parts for a tractor across the lake.
Scratch that
New heading coming up for Beijing Nanjiao.

Well hello fellow Ham Radio operator!!
I am just learning to fly and checking out this website to learn all the airports and airfields in the south of Alberta.
Last time I was in to Drumheller was to meet aviation friends, but we drove in. Loved the airport and the staff hanging around , had a lovely lunch...rats can't remember the place in town, then went through The Royal Tyrell Museum....very interesting indeed!! Keep the Shiny Side Up!!! Caroline
BCATP
What a great old airport!!! She was built in the 1940's as a British Commonwealth Air Training Plan airport for the boys to learn how to fly those big bombers!! It is sad to see most of those old gals in Alberta have disappeared........they must have been something to see all across Canada!!! Too bad that most of them have not been maintained!! CEN4 - High River has been plowed under, but Google earth still shows her triangle!!! Want to do some history search?? Go slowly over each Province and look for that tell tale triangle!!! Safe flying out there!!!! Caroline
Hurricane Ida!
Great airport. My first visit was to drop supplies for victims of Hurricane Ida. The place looked like a war zone, in part because an army search/rescue unit was staging from there. Hope to be back when they've built back!
August 2021 evacuations
This airport was the site of desperate evacuations from Kabul in August 2021:
AGREE with others - BETTER places to go.....
Small facility, poor airstrip, local area boring, no ground transportation. NOTL (CYSN) has much more to offer by a wide margin.
Nice Older Airport
3 runways 2 grass 1 cement look to be in good shape. Went down to work on an irrigation engine. Was a sign on nice big hanger โfor sale or rentโ I would love to have it at home.
Nice Airport, Clean newer FBO
Always fun to add a new airport. Flew in for a family reunion. Was met by family but do have curtesy car.
@gelly
Did you got your problem solved i have the same inquiry maybe u can help po
Nice facility
Went to the annual BBQ lunch Aug. 27, 2021. Great terminal and runway. Very nice local folks. Great to have the self serve fuel as well.
Vols ร Carriacou /Flights to Carriacou
Carriacou est une รฎle magnifique avec une piste courte et รฉtroite de 800m de long.
Je vous conseille de ne pas y atterrir trop chargรฉ (ne pas atteindre la MTOW) car au dรฉcollage vous devrez รฉviter les arbres qui entourent la piste et une colline dans l'axe de piste en faisant un virage ร gauche dรจs que possible.
A l'atterrissage faites attention dans la baie oรน vous serez en finale, il peut y avoir des bateaux qui mouillent dans l'axe.
Ils n'ont pas d'AVGAS 100LL donc prรฉvoyez assez de fuel pour revenir ร l'aรฉrodrome de dรฉpart.
Sinon vous avez TVSA qui a du 100LL si besoin.
Prenez soin de vous et bons vols !
ENGLISH :
Carriacou is a beautiful island with a short and narrow 800m long runway.
I advise you not to land there too loaded (do not reach the MTOW) because on take-off you will have to avoid the trees that surround the runway and a hill in the axis of the runway by making a left turn as soon as possible.
When landing, be careful in the bay where you will be on final, there may be boats anchoring in the axis.
They do not have AVGAS 100LL so take enough fuel to return to the departure aerodrome.
Otherwise you have TVSA (St Vincent) which has 100LL if necessary.
Take care of yourself and safe flights
My Home Field
Earned all my ratings here...from PVT up through CFI-IA. Great facilities, 2 flight schools on the field, maintenance is top-notch, Garmin dealer, and plenty of hangar space (not cheap, but not overly out of line for the area). AIrport has been in operation since the 1920s, and has a good working relationship with the town after many years of issues during the 1980s...could stand as an example of how to go along to get along in the most densely populated state in the US.
During COVID time
As a pilot, during COVID time, it's not harder to go to this airport. You just need to find a nice Handler (HARRIS) that will take care of everything when you arrive there (even with a C172). The West Coast of the Island can be turbulent in the afternoon. When I go to Hewanorra coming from the north of the caribbean, I generally pass on the East Coast to make that flight comfortable for passengers.

Possible reactivation
The provincial governor had promised reconstruction of this airport at least as far back as 2018 and progress is being made on reopening it despite COVID related delays.
Right on the green line

โ @david at Hadassah Heliport, Israel
This helipad is right on the 1949 "Green Line". Based on user reports that it was under Israeli operation before 1967, I have assigned it to Israel rather than Palestine.
