Agok is actually in the disputed Abyei area, which is de jure a condominium (jointly ruled) between Sudan and South Sudan. While we have to select *a* country to enter this airport into the database (which doesn't allow us to select multiple jurisdictions), please note this does not reflect an opinion on the sovereignty over this area.

Visitor experience
Got to fly a C172 with the Aeroclub du Sur and instructore Pierre, and managed to climb to 10,000 ft to get a view over the volcanoes and craters, up over the clouds and down through the valleys, absolutely stunning!!!!!

re: Closed
Reply to @Fadamor: Per your problem report: "The only thing remaining of the runway are broken bits of asphalt. Pilots wishing to fly into Raton, NM should use KRTN about 8 miles to the south of the former NM67."
Dulles Aviation Closed
KHEF is undergoing a major renovation on the West Ramp and in the future for the East Ramp. The Dulles Aviation Building and the neighboring hangar have been razed. The current plan is to upgrade the West Apron for more turbine services. Additionally, the Airport Management are working with the FAA to get scheduled passenger service using narrow-body aircraft (B737, A320, etc.) Currently those plans aren't expected to bear fruit for five years or so.
Closed
This airstrip used to provide service to the La Mesa Park (Horse) Racetrack that was located just across the street to the north. The racetrack and airstrip operated from 1946 to 1992.
Great food stop
In-n-out burger 10 minute walk from the field!
USA misconception
I was searching up "USA" just trying to find all the airports of the USA and this popped up.
Funny thing

Freaking out when Landing
When I was landing at 08L, I thought the plane will take an emergency landing! (I was on United 789, a 777-2000
Glamping available here!
The owner has some tents setup on platforms for a deluxe flyin camping experience!
Wounderful day destination
Flew in, rented a bike and peddled to a selection of restaurants.
A fun flight!
Beware the density altitude, the runway is shorter than many are accustomed to.
Most supportive operations experience
In Jan 2022 in what I recall was zero degree conditions, the operations manager made sure I was able to get my plane moved, warmed and able to depart.
Great destination airport. Nearby is the Iron B&B. Perfect base location to fly the Loring and Frenchville triangle of northern Maine.
24 hr SS 100LL and no fees at the time I utilized this airport.
Runway 32 approach is dramatic
The airport is on a bluff, much hgher the the surrounding terrain. The approach end of runway 32 is the most dramatic example of the land elevation difference.
This is the most northern of the northern Maine triangle of scenic airports. Caribou and historical Loring being the other 2.
I've cleared into the US here as well.
Nice destination, convention customs entry
Last time I visited was 2022, so comments might no longer apply.
Cleared in from Canada here. Comfortable operations building with 24hr access. No fees.
Wounderful destination...
Nestled next to Massachusetts highest peak, Mt Greylock, the operations building has 24 hr access to facilities, S.S. 100LL and parking.
No additional fees that I'm aware of.

Reply to @Hinrik: But excuse me, if this airport is currently closed, you should have marked it with a red X.

Spiritual Home
A good friend -Thomas Kupfer- and I got our PPLs here back in 1976!
Our instructor was Peter Fried, the tower was run Herr Walch, and his daughters worked at the airport.
When (I forgot his 1st name) Guillemot took off on a Cessna C320 out of that miniscule airfield (he mentions Biarritz, FR as his destination), it was like being in heaven … my heaven.
It was a tight operation, and to this day I love going there.
To the Walch family: thank you for leaving me with such wonderful memories …. (and thank you to my parents who made this possible for their son … I was very lucky).

Estado do aeródromo.
Não sei como está agora (2024), mas quando morei e trabalhei na cidade, era muito mal cuidado, com o mato tomando conta da pista, e no seu entorno. Sem demarcação alguma nem indicação de que ali seria um aeródromo. Realmente lamentável, já que é uma localidade relativamente longe de tudo e de serviços exenciais como centros médicos adequados. Faria toda a diferença para a população, saber que poderia contar com uma remoção aérea no caso de emergência.
Alpha-numeric pseudo ICAO codes
Four character alpha numeric codes, e.g. EG03 are DAFIF (Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File) identifiers

Champillon altiporto
ATTENTION THIS TRACK IS FOR EXPERIENCED MOUNTAIN RIDERS ONLY!!! MOUNTAIN PILOTS ONLY!!!!
After the reconnaissance - observe the windsock located about 50 meters after the impact point - we line up (a good reference is the shelter) at about 7,700 ft and begin the approach.
The landing surface is immediately above the road, a basin is visible in summer a little lower and to the right of the runway head.
It is best to touch down with full flaps and not burn off the speed immediately, or it will be difficult to reach the top.
During takeoff, the slope of the runway allows you to take off even with heavy snow.
Located in the immediate vicinity (less than ten minutes of flight) of the Aosta airport, the Champillon field is easily accessible both in summer and winter.
Soon, a well-equipped refuge will also be open a few meters from the end of the "runway".
The only drawback is the relatively low exposure to the wind, a characteristic that makes it accessible almost always, favors the accumulation of a thick layer of snow that can make maneuvering on the ground difficult.
However, it is easy to predict that, with increasing attendance, the snow will soon be "beaten" if nothing else by the aircraft of the Aosta Aeroclub.
Ghiacciaio del Lys
ATTENTION THIS TRACK IS FOR EXPERIENCED MOUNTAIN RIDERS ONLY!!! MOUNTAIN PILOTS ONLY!!!!
The Lys glacier, a stone's throw from the Capanna Regina Margherita on Monte Rosa, is today the highest point where you can place the skis of a Piper.
Landing at almost 4,200 meters is not very easy. The two big differences compared to lower altitudes are the performance of the plane, which is practically at its ceiling, and therefore unable to climb at the rates we are used to, and the wind, which however favorable the day, is to be considered practically always.
On the other hand, the advantages are the always good snow (it is difficult for the temperature to rise above zero by much even during the summer. I landed on the Lys on June 14, with a temperature a couple of degrees below zero, at 11 in the morning) and the possibility of landing and taking off in different directions.
Although it cannot be considered a rule to follow, I managed to land practically against the wind (red arrow) and take off with a crosswind (green arrow), basically using it to decrease the take-off speed and find myself off the ground almost immediately.When landing, it is best to stay high, aiming for the slight slope that is about a hundred meters below the hill.
In this way, there will still be a way to stop on the next slope, before the hill, on the ground you can maneuver easily and it will be possible to choose to take off even across the glacier, parallel to the Lyskamm ridge, in the case of a north wind.
Although with some difficulty, on the ground you can still speak to the Biella airport 123.050, while it is not possible to maintain contact with Aosta or Milan Information.
It would also be possible to land a little higher, in the pass between the Capanna Regina Margherita and the Punta Zumstein, but here we are already in Switzerland.
