FISO Clive is great in the tower along with his friendly colleague who books you out. Good choices of Runway. Asphalt. Not a long taxi. Airport Manager is hard-working and eager. Good fuel prices. Competitive landing fees. JetA1 and 100LL available.
I've traveled to and through here quite a bit over the past few years, because of work. It's an OK terminal, but it's not designed for you to linger anywhere (until your gate is open). Just keep moving.
Also, food vendors ask to see your boarding pass, which is a bit strange.
Train connections are excellent. Don't even *think* about getting into Amsterdam, The Hague, Rotterdam, etc any other way.
Copenhagen no longer has Uber. Taxis are slow and insanely expensive. The Metro is cheap, fast, and will take you right into the downtown train station, or (with a single, easy transfer) to the UN offices and the cruise ship port.
After the gliding club based at Den Helder Naval Station ("de Kooy") was forced to find a new place to fly due to increasing off-shore helicopter traffic based at this NAS as well, the club found this farmer's field in Middenmeer (Wieringermeer). This glider-only field has now been decommissioned after utilities company Nuon took an interest in their field to put up a few windmills and made an offer to move the entire club and its operations to a new field just south of Hypolitushoef. Brand new field, facilities, all of it, very nice. The new addres is Hippolytushoeverweg 15a, 1774 MK Slootdorp, Netherlands and they can be reached on w3-zweef-nl or +31 6 22537070.
RECEPTION REPORT TO NDB IZA ASSOCIATED TO IBIZA AIRPORT
Certainly is an interesting airfield to land at, big wide runway. Not a lot to do there other than have a tea or coffee. Being a military getting on and off can be a little difficult%. Bring photo ID if you want to go off camp and allow extra time to be ferried on and off camp.
We arrived there in G-FIZZ back in October we were treated to a tour of the museum and biplane aircraft. The club chairman insisted we put our aircraft in the hanger for the night.
Private agricultural airstrip of a nearby "monte". Using Google Earth's historical imagery function we can see the runway already existed by 2006, but it was extensively improved in 2010.
Private airstrip of the "Monte do Pombo". Using Google Earth's historical imagery function we can see the runway seems to have been built somewhere between 2012-2014. Seems to be in good condition.
Firm gras strip, also when wet. Fuel station with avgas, mogas and Jet A-1. Very good restaurant. Lovely flying area. Perfect field for a jump to or from the UK .
Rather than prohibiting small excersizes , like T & G, I would argue that wize PR towards locals directed from the airfield administrators could benefit both sides of noise argument people more. By inviting those few "too-much-noise"-accusers (and they are few) to one or two rides in a plane could prove beneficial to the whole community in the long run. Simple PR. Yours Jyri V.
