All I have to say is there are amazing vending machine snack options. 10/10.
Runway usage
Landed and departed over the lake.

I made it! My first airport!

I want to go there.
Shortest Commercial Runway
Juancho Y. Irausquin International Airport has a 400 metre runway! It is considered the shortest commercial runway in the world and has been updated at least thrice.
A great recreational airfield!
My first flight here was nothing short of amazing. Mr. Swank was very hospitable and it's only one of three Recreational Aviation Foundation (RAF) airports in Ohio!
Rough asphalt
It was not too terrible, but the asphalt was a bit rough, more than what I expected for "fair condition". Otherwise, it's a neat airport to fly into.
Great airfield
Landing tax June 2023: 9€ - Petrol 91: 2.87€/L
Good welcome, benches for eating under the trees (pizzeria present but not open on the day we visited), friendly staff.

Good alternative to CYQB, less expensive to land and to park.
Nice place for camping or lodging
The runway is in good shape, long and wide enough (5411 x 100). Some facilitys on site, lodging availlable in summer, camping also possible.
It is a PPR, so call in advance.
Radio Controlled Model Aircraft only airfield.
This airfield is home to the Sydney Radio Control Society airfield, which I think is FANTASTIC; something I could do when I'm no longer flying recreationally!
I looks like the area would be a good landing site in an emergency! I'll fly over it one day and have a look.
re: Home of the Prince Edward Flying Club
Reply to @david: Unfortunately, after 71 years of operation at the Picton Airport, the lease between the new owners and the Prince Edward Flying Club was not renewed. The Club was required to vacate the clubhouse and hangar by the end of June 2024. The new owners of the airport have long-term plans that include parks, housing, and further business and event-hosting development; the airport is not included in those long-term plans. By the end of 2024, it is expected that the airport will be permanently closed with the 3 runways to be removed.
Nice well kept airport
I met a fellow pilot to continue Hanna’s journey home from treatment on Lifeline mission.
Nice little airport
Very cool little grass strip, dropped in here one day with the C172. It's surrounded on all sides by trees so it makes for a pretty fun approach. The surface was fairly smooth and is fairly well maintained by the town of Boyle, definitely recommend stopping by.

Took the C172 up here and did a couple low passes. Looks like this strip sees little, to no use at all. There are what look like small poplars growing on either side of the landing area, leaving just a small, narrow path to land on(unless you want to mow down some shrubs with your prop). The grass didn't look too tall. Didn't actually touch down so I'm unsure of the surface condition, but didn't look to be too bad other than all of the shrubs.
Go somewhere else
Tried to stop in for the fly in breakfast and was told they only make enough food for members and next time to let them know in advance. Went elsewhere for breakfast. This isn’t a flying club it’s just a social club for crusty old dudes. The terminal isn’t much better. Want to feel like you are burdening someone? Try to use the terminal facilities, or buy fuel.
Brockville Airport. Where general aviation goes to die.
re: Nice.
Reply to @wedergarten: your some sadic dude DDD
Still an aviation facility
Heliports count!
Missing NOTAM updation for VEIM (Imphal Airport)
Since long NOTAM updation for VEIM (Imphal Airport) is found to be missing. It would be very appropriate to provide updated NOTAMs in your steam website.

Is this a duplicate of SCGL? What is the proper one?
Russian Wikipedia URL
This airport doesn't have any English sources nor an English Wikipedia page. The Russian Wikipedia page is at ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%9C%D0%BE%D1%82%D1%8B%D0%B3%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%BE_(%D0%B0%D1%8D%D1%80%D0%BE%D0%BF%D0%BE%D1%80%D1%82) and has more info
Is this actually still open?
It's still listed on AirNav, but there's a golf practice and training facility that's basically cut it in half.
Open 1976-2014
It is very weird to make DoorDash deliveries in a samey, bland neighborhood that used to be a thriving grass airfield.
Long gone but ...
There are still visibility markers up on the power lines along Crystal Falls Parkway aligned with the south approach of this former grass strip in 2024!
Aggieland's Best
If you're gonna get a "hundred dollar burger", hard to beat Gate 12 Bar and Grill, which has unobstructed window seating for planespotters. Last time I was here (before COVID), the waitstaff showed me their photos of an L-39 that popped through here -- USAF and USN military trainers (T-6, T-38, T-44, T-45) are a very common sight here and much easier to see and photograph than in Austin.
Duplicate heading?
This might just be Scotia Airport which doesn't show up on the topos ...
A challenging field
Trees are at the ends of both runways, you kinda need to dogleg in and out and it's the second shortest paved strip in the country!
Great experience here
We took our 150 here and the guys in the shop gave us an almost 24 hr turn around on installing a Stratus Adsb and Hobbs meter in it.
Fuel stop
Great guy at the desk. Didn’t seem to mind at all that we came in a half hr before closing.
Unique.
Enjoyed the long walk to the waiting aircraft from the boarding gate passing through a garden. Not seen it on any other airport I have been.
Great!
Although my time in Ecuador wasn’t that great, this airport became my favourite during my trip in South America. Uncomplicated, clean, spacious, plenty of seating areas with direct view of the runway.
re: VOR/DME 34 approach to be canceled
Thanks for your work creating this web site. I love it and have told all the other local pilots about it.
Fuel stop
Less expensive than at home
Rose Aviation 1973-1977
Hello anyone that worked for Rose from '73 to '77. My name is John Dickson and I, like othersm stumbled across this looking for info on Rex Rose for a good friend. I owe my entire airline career to advancements and good fortune I was able to enjoy working for Jean Rose and her Chief Pilot at the time, Art Olsen. If it wasn't for them and their trust in the young 20 year old I was at the time, I'm not sure where I would be. They both entrusted in me the position of flight instructor, charter pilot, and Telephone Patrol Pilot for PT&T from '74 to '77. I worked with some great people - Ray Patinelli, Gene Fitzpatrick, Joe Harrington, Rob Keenan, Greg Madden, Colby Bridget, Tom Rustemyer, George Chuili, Steve Toon, and dispatcher Nikki Caldwell. I remember very well Linda who has checked on with this blog - and would love to catch up on how Art Olsen lived the rest of his life. I have a great story about Rex Rose (actually two) that I would love to share for anyone who would like to listen. Just let me know. I'll keep any eye out. Anyone out there from that era?

Reply to @AraBoqueron: does the strip have an aerodrome code? Trying to find it in the CFS. Have you used the strip?

Reply to @oslec20: bem vindo
Great airport
Super fun to fly in MSFS. Would be cool to go there IRL.
Very Disappointing !!
We stopped at this airport for fuel BUT they just received a delivery of fuel and "had to settle" for 1.5 hours before being dispensed.
Unfortunate landing that could have been avoided if the FBO responded to our unicom calls as we approached the airport. There were no responses as we called out our positions. They did not communicate the fuel issue until we taxied to the fuel farm. Pretty sad lack of communication.
