••Near Mirzapur (Haryana) on Narnaul-Rewari highway.
Use the grass runways
The runway pavement surface is in bad shape, except for a small strip down the middle of 08/26. Use the grass surface beside each runway, which is well maintained (it was no problem for my nose-dragging PA-28).

Note: Bing Maps imagery shows a much more serviceable strip than Google Maps does. Not sure how old Bing's images are.
Conducted a prec search at this strip in 2018 and it looked unsuitable for landing due as it was overgrown

Very hard strip to spot. There are cones but that's it. If you have this for a CPL nav/test do a good recce of the satellite image before flying!
re: Another Ukraien International Airport!
I assume it at least has customs for private aircraft.

RCLG is now a city park, etc. Please remove it.
Road crossing runway
From the Wikipedia article:
"Winston Churchill Avenue (the main road heading towards the land border with Spain) intersects the airport runway, and consequently has to be closed every time a plane lands or departs."
Shared zone and frequency with Les Cèdres
This airport is only a few miles to the north of the busier Les Cèdres/Cedars (CSS3), and shares a common zone and ATF frequency of 123.5 MHz (also the frequency for Ottawa/Rockcliffe CYRO, so it gets busy).
Like Les Cèdres, it's under Montreal Terminal's class C shelf, so if you're VFR, you need to stay below 2,000 ft MSL unless you're talking to them. It's a flat area with lots of fields and no high towers, so low flight isn't a problem.
The runway's not as bad as it looks
The runway looks like a patchwork quilt of different shades of asphalt when you're on approach, but the surface is actually fine.
If you're VFR, note that you need to stay below 2,000 ft MSL unless you talk to Montreal Terminal (and they're often too busy to talk much, though they try to accomodate). The land is flat, there are no high towers in the area, and there are fields for emergency landing in every direction, so it's not really a problem flying around at 1,500 ft until you're out from under the class C shelf.
Maintained
Use at your own risk. Grass is mowed.
Health screening during the 2014-15 Ebola crisis
When I visited in 2015 during the Ebola crisis, there was fairly strict health screening in place. We had our temperatures taken before we entered the terminal building by local authorities (common at all public buildings), then again before we boarded the Air France flight, by a security team from France. On arrival at CDG, we were checked again exiting the plane, then those of us who had started our trips in Ebola-affected countries were pulled off the Paris-Montreal flight first, while all other passengers were forced to remain seated, and given a checkup by a public health nurse.
Mountain (sort-of)
The mountain (by eastern standards) is just behind the field, and looms large when you're crossing overhead from the south to join the downwind for 08. It's good to warn any passengers that you'll appear to be flying straight towards the trees.
Still open (2019)
If flew in again this spring. Yes, it's still here. The airport is a bit shabby and run-down, but you can't beat it for convenience—just a quick short distance away from the centre of the city.

re: LFSL
Reply to @Tgd: Thanks for the update! We're a community-driven initiative, and if you have time, you are very welcome to edit the airport entry to make the changes. If not, then hopefully one of our other volunteers will have a chance to get to it.

The lost villages
To the east of here, along the St Lawrence River, you can see the old Highway 2, several sideroads, and even some village street grids and lots under the water. They were submerged with the opening of the St. Lawrence Seaway in 1959, and flying over them is still an interesting (and creepy) experience.

Procedures: summer glider ops for air cadets
[copied from Facebook]
The Air Cadets Gliding Operations have commenced for the Fall season at Smiths Falls flying Club on weekends.
When Air Cadet Glider Ops are in progress there is no inactive side of the circuit. Gliders and Tow Planes do right hand circuits and use both the main and grass Runway. The Glider “zone” extends up to 3,000 ft on the “inactive” side.
Joining the circuit from inactive side should be avoided, coordinate with Glider Ops on 122.7 if unsure. Joining the circuit straight into downwind is highly recommended.

Ubay
As an ex Pilot and Lover of the Philippine Islands . I can Only encourage such a plan as to Improving Ubay Airstrip into a fully renowned Ubay Airport equal to Panglao

Lived here when my Dad (PAF) was stationed here, circa 1962-65; lived in a Quonset hut....fond memories of pilots (Filipinos and U.S. servicemen) doing their first solo flights and getting "baptized" with a pail of water (with the obligatory goat poop and kids' pee) after which, they have to treat everyone with pineapple pie bought at a bakery in town. Fun times. Lights out/taps when the generator runs out of gas.
Gillam Aviation Fuel
Avgas and Jet fuel are both offered at YGX, better prices than Thompson or Churchill with 24/7 service. As for the comment above, I purchased the company October 1, 2018 and avgas does not require 24 hour notice, but any notice with an accurate time is always appreciated!
