Re: Scams

Just ignore them. There is no real dog, and nothing will come to harm by you ignoring or blocking their attempts to contact you.

Alitalia Flight from Heathrow via Rome enroute to CAIRO iNTE

Upon arrival at Cairo International Airport Terminal i purchased a VISA from the bank. Then while going through customs i was told too have a seat while my passport was kept for over three hours before being given back to me. To add to the grief of missing my taxi service to the hotel. My luggage was no where to be seen on the conveyer belt. After contacting Alitalia head office in London my luggage was located. upon arrival at Alitalia Office at Cairo International Airport two days after, i was told by the rep, i must pay a fee of ten Egyptian pounds for the return of my luggage. My luggage by the way contained my medication for Asthma for which i have been on for the past five years. But i guess they only want their ten Egyptian pounds. The most saddest airline i have ever traveled on. Hope you enjoy the Ten Egyptian Pounds because if i had not gotten that medication i could have died. Big Thanks

Cameroon Pet Scam

I was just almost scammed then I looked on this website and seen the same email I got

Hello

I am so impressed with your inquiry about adopting my babies..i

have been looking for a home for them for a while now but not only a

home but a forever home for them.. firstly let me tell you about

them.Am having a male and a female. Roy is the male while Dolly is the

female... they are all registered with the following animal

registration club that is Akc and are veterinary checked and

vaccinated and have all health records till date and housing

documents.I am not out to sell them, all i want is to give them out

to a home or family that is able to spoil them with the love and care

that they deserve,so all i need of you is to assure me you will take

good care of them because i don't want to give you my puppies) out and

discover they are not handled with care.These puppies were owned by my

late grand Mum. So when she died i was sent here in CAMEROON for a

research project which is going to last for 3 years. I came with them

here in CAMEROON but the bad climatic condition here and also the

nature of my job does not permit me to take good care of them. That’s

why am trying to send them back to their home land in USA to a loving

home where they will be spoiled with all their needs and treated with

love.So you just need to assure me you will take good care of my

puppies.please before we proceed i will like to ask you some questions

if you don't mind,

-Are you a breeder?

-Do you have kids?

-Do you have a vet around your location?

-What will be your reaction if in case they destroy some thing worth

100$? Sorry for all the questions alright,I just wanna make sure that

my babies have a good and caring home were ever they may be. I will

give each of them to you for $150 each Okay, since you will only pay

for the change of ownership document bearing your full names address

and you will the dog home. my husband and i will be responsible for

the shipping fee so you got nothing to worry about Okay, All we are

asking you to pay is $150 for the change of ownership papers from my

names to yours alright, this means that you are the new owner of the

dog and you will have your dog delivered to your home Okay. Like i

said earlier you don't have to worry about the transportation fee

because it's our responsibility to pay for the shipping fee Okay.

FOR ROY ______________

-he is house Trained and Potty.

-he does not bark a lot.

-he eat 2 times daily.

-he Is socialized with kids and other house hold pets .

-he is a portable baby.

-he likes to be carried a lot and be spoiled

-he likes to be kissed .

-he gets angry when you shout at him, so don't do that.

FOR DOLLY _________________

-She are house and potty

-Dolly barks more than Roy but not to much..

-she eats 2 times a day same like Roy.

-Dolly feels shy when carried.

-She also likes to be kissed..

-both of them barks when they sees strangers.

Thanks and i will be waiting to read from you soon

Please be careful, and always check. I wish there was a way to stop the scam.

Runway Usage

The runway is only 30ft/10m wide. When the grass is long around the runway, huge boulders are hidden. This runway is for the use of Sunset Shores residents.

***ONLY USE THIS RUNWAY IF YOU HAS CONFIDENT WITH SHORT, NARROW FIELD OPERATIONS***

Picture of Finch6

Runway Surface

The last 820ft/250m of runway 06 is concrete. Therefore, the first 820ft/250m of runway 24 is concrete.

There is also a turning circle at the threshold of 24

re: re: re: Cameroon Pet Scam

If they ask for money via WU or Moneygram, or they have anything to do with Cameroon, it's a scam. 100% certainty.

re: re: Cameroon Pet Scam

Dear Sir/ Madam,

I have deal to Island ostrich group Ltd in India that has ostrich farm in Cameroon. They can provide other tracking no. for previous customers and it is traceable that shipping from Int. Airport Douala. They ask me to pay with WU and moneygram. How to recognize that is pet scam or not?

Moved

I moved the marker to 9.6N 5.18333W because that's where the Eurocontrol data has it, but it doesn't look any more like an aerodrome than the previous location. It's important to note, however, that small private airstrips often don't look like anything on the satellite imagery.

no sign of any airport at coordinates 9.6Β°N 5.2Β°W

wow

Me as well I have been emailing the person about the puppies ever since yesterday night. I though it was to good to be true the price that I would pay and they will pay the rest. I notice it was awkward because I was looking for a pom puppy online when I saw the same picture of the dog this person was supposedly trying to sell me and online was 4,000 and the person told me its only 145$ . I ask for more pictures and she send me the pictures that was online. I felt this was a scam so I had to research the address up to see. I work my ass of for my money and this Xmas I wanted to get my daughter a puppy and she fell in love with the picture of the puppy and wanted it so I told the person I wanted the dog but something was not right and now that I read this I won't proceed with the payment. Yes she was all religious as well and started bringing up some Bible verses and stuff now she will pay their consequences because with god no one messes with him. Stupid people !

airstrip condition

The tarmac condition is quite impressive.A serviceable windsock is also available but the strip is narrow.i might as well recommend an initial low pass to ensure no animals or Kids playing on the runway.Good luck as you plan to fly to Nyahururu

Flight information on this site

On Thursday morning, before the huge storm struck in mid afternoon, I looked at International Arrivals to see what the scheduled time for the afternoon SAA flight from Lilongwe was noted as. It said 3.30pm and LANDED. All day it said LANDED, which was very inaccurate. It was diverted to Durban at 3.30 as the pilot could not land the aircraft! The passengers eventually landed back in Johannesburg at 8pm.....I was too busy driving back to the Sandton Gautrain pick up point to be able to check to see if the site had been updated. If it had said DIVERTED at 4pm I would have saved myself a nightmare trip to Sandton and back.

Puppies

Nearly got scammed , wanted payment via western Union Douala but pups were only coming from Scotland to kent . Why the need to make payment to there . If it was a true thing surely you would use a respectable buiseness

Picture of

this site saved me

Don't believe them as soon as the ask for money u know they are scams coz if they want the dogs to go to good homes go give it to the animal shelter. You say its a give aways so why u need money. If u went overseas with the dogs u a fool u should of gave it away in first place. And why can't u find a good home in the same country u are living in. So we guys need to know as soon as they ask us for money its a scam ignore them. This web site helped me I almost got scamed. But I never intended to give money.

Air Strip and Hangers

Hi There, i was wondering weather you can help me. I am a researching for Migrate Films Company and have been back and forth trying to find dusty air strips with Hangers (kind of deserted) so small landing strips are what we are looking for to pitch for this international shoot. I have looked for the air strips in the follwing places between Pottsville & Eendekuil- Malmesbury, Wellington, Tulbagh, Loeriesfontien, Niewoudtville, Calvinia, Sutherland. I cannot seem to get my hands on any photographs. Do you have any suggestions who might or where i might be able to find? sorry if this is the incorrect forum for this my research on these places has just lead me to here and desperate times call for desperate measures.

If you do have any suggestions pls get back to me at frances@atomikpictures.com. It would be such a great help to just talk with someone who knew these smaller landing strips.

Thanks so much

Frances

airport staff

On a recent visit I found the staff at this airport to be the rudest most unhelpful and overbearing I have ever come across anywhere in the world.

Picture of

Announcements

The announcements at the airport drive me crazy. The terrible use of their voices, the pitch of the voice, the pronouncements and the tone is absolutely terrible. I just can't understand why you don't coach your announcers properly. This is a world-class airport, except for the terrible annoucements. It seems as if they really don't care what they sounds like and if they have no proud of who they are or who they represent. Kindly note that I have made a sound rcording of this unslaught on our ears and will definitely bring it to the attention of whoever wants to hear it.
