Verkhnee Penzhino
A former civilian/technical airstrip used in the past for local connections (the Magadan/Kamchatka network), with very few facilities: possibly just a small service building near the village, but nothing that would qualify as a real hangar or terminal.no ICAO CODE
new ICAO cod
“The ICAO code for LZKOMO has been officially released today. The assigned code is LZKA.”
Lakolk Strand, Rømø [Off-Airport]
Romo Beach is a temporary runway used for military exercises. Temporary runways can also be created on highways, glaciers, or open fields in the countryside, and they do not have an ICAO or IATA identifier. Reality is very different from the simulated world: EKXX is an invention and does not exist in real life.

Used for Military Training
Romo Beach Airstrip is used for military training for the Danish Air Force. It's also used for car shows. Planes like the A400M or the C-130 land here. Btw, the ICAO code is wrong, there is a Mod in MSFS 2024 that has that code, but it isn't official. So, if you know an official code, tell me.
Valunistoe (airport)
It is located exactly in the area of the “Valunistoe” gold-silver deposit (Валунистое месторождение), operated by the company ООО «Rudnik Valunisty».
In Russian documents, it is referred to as a «взлётно-посадочная площадка на месторождении», meaning a takeoff-and-landing strip at the mining site, not an actual airport.
Agencies such as TASS regularly mention flights “Anadyr – Rudnik Valunisty”, meaning there is (or was) a regular or charter connection from Anadyr directly to the “Rudnik Valunisty” mining site, but it is always described as a mine destination, not as a certified airport.

GRASS RUNWAY 16/34
Error in runways.csv
Your runways.csv contains an error for the runway number. The relevant record is:
342670,44343,"UA-0025",8202,262,"CON",0,0,"18",,,,189,,"39",,,,9,
This indicates runways 18 and 39, which breaks the convention of runway numbering. It should be corrected to read 36.

Bari Karol Wojtyła International Airport
11/sect/2021 As part of the radio navigation aid decommissioning program carried out by ENAV in accordance with European regulations for the transition to PBN procedures, on September 9, 2021, the Bari Locator ‘BPL’ 401.00 kHz and the Sorrento NDB ‘SOR’ 426.00 kHz were officially shut down. Consequently, all NDB STARs, NDB SIDs (L) 07 and 25, RNAV DIVKU 3F, and ILS/LOC X 07 and L 07 procedures at Bari have been suspended. The navigation aids were turned off via NOTAM, and after an impact assessment period, their permanent removal will be made official in the AIP through the AIRAC cycle.
The next scheduled shutdowns involve the Locators and NDBs of Falconara (November 4), Turin (November 4), Linate (December 2), and Pescara (December 2), followed by Perugia, Reggio Calabria, Voghera, and Genoa by the end of the year.
Aereo Club I Templari
The real name of the airfield has always been Ceraso. It hasn’t changed in many years, so it’s simpler to just call it that.
Aero Club I Templari
So, the "Il Nido delle Aquile" airfield has changed its name and is now called the "Aero Club I Templari". New management, and that's it.
I've attached the link to the official website.
Website has changed.

Runway 09-27 to be deleted.
According to the official data the runway does not exist anymore. Please delete. I don't have the right to do so.
Nicest terminal i ever saw !
In the moment there are only four Binter flights a day. TFN and LPA twic a day by Binter.
The entrance is build like a cathedral entrance. Inside you will find open water, a bar / cafe and car rental.
There is one window not darkened where you can take pictures, but expect no traffic. I saw a Tecnam there.
Very impressive construction !
Nice hike !
Park at La Roseta and prepare for a one way hike of 12km.
The airport was built by Alvaro Rodriguez Lopez (1885-1958) as a private field. He was in business with Thomas Olsen (Fred Olsen) and planted a lot of bananas and tomatoes in southern La Gomera. The road construction to the airport was very demanding. Its impossible to drive along, maybe with an Enduro bike. You will find a gravel runway, a tower and a hangar big enough for a Beech 18. Its a very remote place but absolutely worth to go to!
Reports say that something like Britten Norman Islanders and Mitsubishi MU-2 landed there. It is also reported that they had to leave the runway uphill for building up enough speed for departure.
On sundays you will find hunters there shooting canejos. Can be a bit scary but they are very friendly.
Very windy airport
Was landing on runway 09 with 13 knots crosswind gusting to 20. A bit challenging with a C172.
Easy-to-use, but light on facilities
The fact that Dresden airport is still operational is a blessing for locals of the Saxon capital, but it is unfortunately vastly underused and massively underserved. Landsie facilities are sparse, with the ground level dotted with car rental kiosks, an information desk (for lost baggage and onward transport info, and the odd souvenir), and a newsagent that serves coffee (when it's open, which it isn't often). If you do want a warm drink before you go through security, there are a couple of machines, but they only take coins (no card). If you only have notes on you, there is a change machine to the left of the info desk as you enter the airport from the car park. Trains to the centre of Dresden (which stop in Neustadt and HbF) are found downstairs and run 18 and 48 minutes past the hour. Check in and security are on the first floor, and they are generally a doddle to clear. The only time you'd expect to wait is when you find yourself checking in with one of the three daily flights to Palma de Mallorca. Beyond that frequent shuttle service, not many end destinations are well served. There are regular flights to Frankfurt, Münich, and Düsseldorf, from which you can get pretty much anywhere with ease. There are a few flights a week to Zürich, and a relatively regular service to London Stansted throughout the summer, but the frequency is unreliable in the off-season.
There have been whispers for years that the airport will close, and the lack of investment in services doesn't bode well for that, but a connection to Antalya in Turkey was added recently, so maybe that's a good sign.
Airside, there is no external smoking area, but a small, ventilated cubicle has been added. There's a decent coffee shop, a small but well-stocked Duty Free, and a newsagent with souvenirs. It feels more like a bus terminal than an airport in many ways, which is no bad thing for frequent fliers. It's no frills, but no nonsense also. I have a soft spot for it as it's my local airport, but I do wish a few more connections to the UK and Ireland were added, and a direct daily flight to Geneva would be a Godsend for me. I'm not holding out hope for those to be added any time soon, though.

I just joined OurAirports yesterday. How does someone create a new message in these forums? I am a bit at loss. I have sent messages to the comments area, and have heard nothing back. Pretty frustrating. Thanks if you can help me.

Very welcome reception
After a drizzly arrival, we were welcomed by the people from the local inn. Call them beforehand. You might be so lucky to get a free coffee and cake, as we did.

Beautiful location in the heart of Northern Bohemia within hilly countryside, Zakupy Castle just on the eastern border of the ATZ, Panska Rock (the Stone Organ) only a few minutes NW from the airport… To name some popular highlights in the vicinity of the airfield.
Friendly people inviting you to spend some time talking about the aviator’s stuff at the local bar… I can only recommend this place for a visit.

Great location for summer
The airfield is basic, and you need to be careful for mountainwaves, especially with winds from the west. Also, mind the landscape, I found it difficult the grasp the elevations.
There is a cabin for rent, but I can recommend walking to the nearby camping, where there services.
It is a great location for mountain walks in summer.

Nice Airport
I've only ever flown out of AMS. We have flown United out back to the states. We found the Airport a typical large international airport that seemed a updated and more modern. Signage was good and easy to get around. We spent time in the United lounge and had a good time waiting for our flights there.
ICAO
ICAO code should be: LRBH
ICAO Code
ICAO code shouldn't be LR79, but rather LRIC.

Reply to @QUIK-R-912S:
Hi Carl,
I live within 15 minutes of this airfield and used to fly flexwing in the UK until I moved to Spain. Did you ever find out anything or manage to hanger and fly somewhere else local? I've been looking to get back in to flying here so would find this useful as I'm looking to book up with a flight school here soon to get back in the air. If I do I'll be looking to have a flexwing here.
In the UK I flew out of Stoke (Medway) near Rochester, Kent.
Kind regards
Paul

Hi there,
does anyone have a valid email I can use to contact the people responsible for the non directional beacon ONW on 355 kHz ?
