CLOSED
The Happy Valley Airport has been closed since at least 2009. Additionally, the runway is now being used as a driveway for a large house built at its southern end.
The Entire Airport Got Revamped
I Like How My Closest Airport To Me Got Changed ENTIRELY, The Terminals Are Now Different, and More Signs And Services Have Been Built
A Very Nice Airport
Welcome To The Conch Republic or USA! This airport is very nice and I like how it pinpoints the existence of the Conch Republic, i would have not known if it didn't Say "WELCOME TO THE CONCH REPUBLIC" On The Wall.
ROUGH pavement
There are so many weeds growing through the cracks this might as well be a grass strip

Sometimes HEMS helicopters land there, usually there are stupid car drifters are at the helipad, drifting and chilling...

La orientación actual de la pista es 35 y 17
WWII Airstrip
Not to be confused with the modern Talasea Airport to the north, this is the site of two crashed WWII planes (a B-25 Mitchell and a Lockheed Ventura) still clearly visible in 2021.
Used for 1992 Landing of Mickey Mouse One
Upon the retirement of Walt Disney's private plane Mickey Mouse One (Grumman Gulfsream I N234MM) in 1992, it landed here to be displayed at the adjacent MGM (now Hollywood Studios), as the old Walt Disney World Airport to the north had been blocked off by the construction of the monorail system. Further use of the site for aviation purposes has been permanently precluded by the No Fly Zone orders in place since 2001.
odd place for a airport
YEAH VERY ODD
A bit of forgotten aviation history
New York Airways ran helicopter commuter flights here 1965-1968, and again briefly in 1977. A landing accident here on May 16, 1977 killed four passengers and a pedestrian on the street below, ending the use of skyscraper helipads in New York City, though they remain in use in other cities elsewhere, primarily for emergency use.
Future star
Ludhaina is a business hub shortly ludhaina International Airport became number 1 airport in this area

My Experience
Yuma Is Also A Nice Town To Vacation In @Apollu1 , and it is a very nice airport. It also has a pretty nice terminal.
My Experience
A Very Nice Airport, Went here a few times.
Warning: high landing fee, GA not welcome
City council has forced the airport to institute a $35 landing fee (+HST, presumably). There are no exceptions, not even for resident pilots or pilots purchasing fuel. The fee is more than double that of CYTZ, which is downtown in Canada's biggest city.
I suggest taking your travel business to nearby Wiarton CYVV, instead -- it still welcomes GA.

Just Off of US-101, No Signs On US-101 Pointing The Airport,

I Flew Here On A Flight From SFO To Yuma With A Layover In Phoenix, Yuma Is A Very Awesome Town For Vacationing, And It's Airport Is Not Bad For A 90,000 Person Desert Town.

Why insist on removing it? This is a correct mention of a (no longer active) aerodrome, isn't it?
Misplaced marker
I've moved this to the apparent SW-NE runway several km east of town. Marker *had* been in town where there is clearly no airport.

Hello, I think that the new ICAO code is SPJC, can you change it in airport.csv ? :)

Not sure why tagged as a "spam airport".
This definitely exists, clearly visible on Google and OSM sat-maps.
Update 2021
Reopened as of September 2019, primarily being used to store aircraft for Vueling during the COVID crisis.

Immaculate private airfield, when driving past runway looks good enough to land a private jet.
No longer in use
Clipped by the border and no longer even entirely in Iraq!
The Lowest Airport in the World
Between 1240 and 1266 ft below sea level, Bar Yehuda Airfield is the lowest altitude airport on the planet.
Geographical quirk!
Despite being less than two miles from the sea, Madha Airport is in a landlocked exclave of Oman, completely surrounded by the UAE. There's also a smaller enclave of UAE land within the Madha territory. There are no border crossings in any case, as the relationship between the UAE and Oman in modern times is sufficiently cordial as to make this largely a non-issue.
Tiny but Nice Las Trancas Airport.
Las Trancas Airport Is A Very Tiny Airport in many ideas, Its just a dirt airsrip off of Highway 1, However, Las Trancas Is A Nice Airport, And I want others to know that it is a tiny airport, Since it is so Small, The airport is only limited to Piston Single And Piston Agricultural Aircraft. I want to try buying a plane and landing on the rather tiny airstrip myself, but well not yet... It's right next to a Lumber yard off of Highway One thats right next to the airport, The Airport is a nice airport, but its unknown, Even to Locals Of Davenport! It dosen't even has its own wikipedia Page!
The Airport has a nice but very tiny building thats Clearly Visible When Driving On Highway 1 because it has a wind measuring cone on the top. Its Very Small.
Ideas With the airport:
Buy A Piston Single Or Piston Agricultural Plane And Land Here Yourself, if you want, land here multiple times.
When the place is not used, Help develop the runway by possibly painting it or making it wider by clearing off the grass.
Maybe Add Some Lights, So The Cabrillo Highway Travellers Can See The Beautiful Airport, Also Maybe A Generator.
Idk, reply 2 this comment and give more ideas on what to do with the airport or more facts about the Las Trancas airport.
Following international practice
Most countries in the world do not recognise Russia's annexation of Crimea. Until/unless that changes, we will continue to list this airport is in an occupied region of Ukraine. Please do not edit to change that — repeated efforts to change it will result in account suspension.
Closed since 1977.
Microsoft Flight Simulator lists this, hilariously, as "USEU Severo-Kurilsk". Okeanskoye has been closed and unusable since at least the 1970s.
Repurposing duplicate
Since I am unable to merge, I'm repurposing this heading for a different aviation facility in India.
re: Crimea
Hi Bill35! In the current iteration of the database: neither Crimea nor Sevastopol are selectable as independent entities or as subdivisions of Russia, only as subdivisions of Ukraine. The United Nations continues to consider Crimea and Sevastopol as Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia. There are instances where OurAirports diverges from strict UN interpretation (ie. Taiwan, Kosovo) and note that the islands of the southern Kuril chain are reckoned as strictly Russian and not Japanese (mirroring decades of de facto control), but for the most part, I believe this site adheres to UN and IATA policy.
Remanded to Website Owner
I am too busy adding unlisted airports and heliports throughout the world to continue to deal with this regional spat. I have remanded this to the OurAirports administrator for an official decision. If he decides to add Crimea and Sevastopol as subdivisions of the Russian Republic, then that's up to him.
Please stop moving this airport to Russia.
Unless and until the UN recognizes the occupation of the Crimean Peninsula by Russia, we should continue to list all airports in Crimea as being in Ukraine. There is no subdivision for Crimea or Sebastopol under the Russia heading. This is not the time or place for nationalistic sentiment -- this is simply abiding by the good-faith standards of database maintenance.
