re: NDB installed
Reply to @PrinceJ: if you can point me to more information about the NDB, I can add it to the site. I need name, identifier, latitude, and longitude (at least).
Thanks,

Vietnam-War era reliever
The US built this strip as a reliever for Nha Trang Air Base (VVNT) during the Vietnam War. In the satellite photo, it appears abandoned.
History
This was built as a US air base during the Vietnam war, and was captured by North Vietnam in 1975. The airport received major reconstruction during the early 2000s, and starting in 2004, it took over scheduled civilian air traffic for Nha Trang from VVNT.
Vietnam War
This was originally a French colonial air base built in 1949, and it served as a major US and South Vietnamese air base during the Vietnam War, until its capture in 1975. Until 2004, the base handled civilian traffic for Nha Trang as well, but that now goes through VVCR.
First Fiight Al baha Saudi Arabia
I was on the first fight out of the airport in 1982,
re: Name During WW2?
According to the Japanese-language Wikipedia article, this base was opened in 1942 for the Empire of Japan's Naval Air Corps, seized by US forces in 1945, and handed back over to the Japanese military in 1954 (where it later became the home of the JADF's "Blue Impulse" aerobatic team). There is no mention of what name the US might have used for the base during the occupation.
Name During WW2?
What was the name of this airport during ww@? I spent time ehere with the 11th Airborne, It would be intresting to see it now and talk about it, cfowler26@kc.rr.com

airport survey...
people i heard that there was a survey made for starting Gaya-Delhi flight, but survey team sitting at patna only cancelled the idea, giving the reason of less revenue from the airport ..isn't it kiddish ..first let the things be known to people. automatically they will start using those services ....most of the time they cancel the flight without any reasons and also no information is given to fliers and they suffer a lot. already i have sufferred this twice..also there is no availablity of snacks or coffee/tea shops at the airport.so first improve the service and then revenue can be build easily...

Mt Mayon
Hi! I have planned to fly to Legazpi in February and I'm worried of the volcano Mt Mayon. I know people have been evacuated away from the volcano at the moment and like to know a little more! We have planned to fly to Legazpi then take a taxi to Pilar and a fast craft to Masbate City. What happens if the volcano eruptures?? Where can we land safely that our plans are not all going to waste? What's the situation at the moment?

Runway at Castillejos
I last used this runway in 1964 when the Cubi Pt. Navy Flying Club used it for training with a Piper Colt. It was unpaved but in good condition and was attended by a man who asked for our flight information.
Runway
I last landed and took off Corregidor in 1984 with 3 American Civil Air Patrol Cadets. I recommend 10 degrees of flaps for takeoff with a Cessna 182.
The same C182 with 4 adults went off the end of the runway and dropped into the bay sometime later.
re: any airlines care to fly to iligan?pls.do....
hej,im glad to have a feedback/reaction relating my post.actually it took some time for somebody like me interested about Ma.Cristina Airport's reopening to commercial service.I'm even more happy to know that you're working for the govt.or in the congress.are you a staff of Cong.Varf Belmonte?i've been looking for a way on how i can contact him to ask about what's his plan of RPMI(Iligan)the only thing i can link you about RPMI(Ma.Cristina Airport)is in skyscrapercity.com,i believe you know that forum already.there's a guy in there that's really an aviation expert and he knows the real score of Iligan airport.AFAIK Iligan Airport is still close waiting for the clearing operation by our AFP to be finished and be declared safe for aircraft within the approach zone.but i still believe that a push from the local govt.or the person like cong.varf belmonte or people connected with the govt.could be a big help in reopening the airport.i've seen many airports opened already and has been active ever since.airports of cities or provinces that iligan is way ahead in terms of revenue and population.i just hope you could give your precious time to promote or make an important move so Ma.Cristina Airport can be reopened again.i would would be happy to support too.

pagkakataon na upang legazpi at albay o maging ang buong bicol ay umunlad sa pagdagsa ng mga turista sa ating rehiyon. higit na matutuklasan ang kagandahan ng ating lugar. ang lahat ng iyan magiging abot-kamay kapag may isang modernong p-aliparan na siyang magiging daan sa pag-unlad ng ating pamayanan.
Yup Pakibilisan na po..

re: An emotion of a Vietnamese-American at the Tan Son Nhat
Reply to @tt: I know what you mean, but basically it is another form of giving tips although people usually feel better if giving tips in the open space (and not being asked for) although Vietnameses are not customed to accept tips in the open space (and in front of others). In USA, I give tips to cab drivers everytime although I don't have to but I do (and usually the cab drivers don't do anything for me - I carry my own bags). So it would reasonable to give tips to people who help you with your lugages (and they will after accepting your tips).
Just another thought through my mind, what would the cab driver (in USA) says to himself if I don't give him any tip? You would never know!
