First Air friend reported drunken fss, drunken maintenance c
I was just chatting with a friend who works for First Air up in Resolute. He was telling me that this past fall the CARS guy was wasted at work and they had to wake him up. Then later the same week the maintenance guy was suspended for driving drunk on the airstrip. He was telling me that first air had a bad crash there last year, a 737. Loss of life/aircraft. He said the guys were playing video games in the office when it happened. The weather was way off from what the guy was reporting then (the same guy who was drunk and had to be woken up before). Somebody has to stand up and do something about this kind of lawless operation in the north. It's aviation for x sakes, not a janitorial business. Transport should run these northern communities directly to ensure they are operated up to standard. How many people are going to die or risk their lives before something is done?
Pretty good
One of the 3 acceptable operations in the north. (Iquialiut and Rankin Inlet are the other two)
re: Not the base for Borek but anyway
*should read rwy 14/32
Not the base for Borek but anyway
Borek is based in Calgary. The have an ops in iqualiut and resolute. Forget landing here in anything but a gentle breeze. Tight approach rwy 35 i think. RWY17 is for CAVOK and calm, daylight only. Takeoff is 17 only. The strip has some soft spots, a small wheeled plane could definitely end up in trouble here. I can't remember how long the strip is but less than 2000'. Seldom staffed. Drunk weather guy, drunk maintenance. Or if you are lucky they are all together absent. The most unreliable operation I have seen (possibly tied with Coral Harbor NWT or Iglooklik.) That is a place that I would be happy and relieved to here a VGM from! Pathetic operation it is.
Watch out!
The maintenance folk go on and off the strip whenever they feel like it. Radio man is clueless about it. I was taking off here once and just as I was turning at the button the truck casually meandered out on the runway. When he saw me (almost on top of the plane he darted back and forth like a deer in the lights kinda thing. I called up CARS and asked her to repeat the traffic. She said (cheerily) none to report. I said ok thanks, just checking...heh heh (shakes his head)
Same old same old north of 60...
The weather guys here are clueless. Hard to get people to show up when you want them to, airport operation isn't what I would call 'safe'. Same all over Canada's north.

When both Mumbai and Delhi airports combined,then they handle more than 75% of air traffic in South Asia.They both are also one of the most luxurious airports in Asia.

Flight
This airport even handles one international airline,maybe to Sharjah.
Nice
It is not so big,well-equipped nor does it have any international or 5 star facilities like Mumbai airport,but still it is nice.
Sweet Shop
The sweet shop in the terminal is great. The bengali sweets they have are the best I've ever tasted.
re: amravati airport..
who will develop amravti airport and when will it get developed for domestic operation as maharastra government has already approved the development of Amravati airport in feb2009 till now other than the land acquisition nothing has been done when will the development of amrvati airport will be completed.
Modernization of CSIA
The airport is being modernized by new ATC tower,expansion of terminals,international 5-star lounges,swimming pool,metro rail service etc.After all these things are complete(by August 2013),then Mumbai airport can easily compete with other famous airports in the world.
Not so big airport
Maximum 5 to 6 planes can be landed on Pune airport runway everyday.It is a very small airport.Any international traveler from Pune needs to go to Mumbai airport,as Pune airport handles only some domestic flights.

Segamat Airport
cute little airfield, that has a lovely 9-hole golf course surrounding it.
very nice for single-engine aircrafts to land and enjoy the surrounding.
Friend of mine flies in there, with me from Senai, and we do a round of golf and head back - lovely weekend activity.

Hallo All
Don't believe on the politicians. They just promise for their own Marketing for politics. Best Example is Pratibha Patil. She is from Jalgaon itself but she didn't do anything for Jalgaon, so forget about Jalgaon Airport. I don't understand why such people come in politics if they don't know anything. Everything goes on corruption..........forget about Jalgaon Airport. That was a joke that Pratibha was a president.
HI
