eshte nje nevoj njerezore
do te ishte me mire qe keto komente qe ne po japim, te shkojne ne veshin e duhur sepse kjo eshte nje humbje kombetare ne rradhe te pare por gjithashtu eshte nje mosvleresim i sakte i qeverise shqiptare ne manaxhimin e ketij airporti. do te ishte nje ndihme e madhe per te gjithe zonen e veriut dhe te gjithe kosoven jug perendimore. dhe nje fakt qe eshte shume real ne economine shqipetare, do te kishte mundesuar dhe ndihmuar shume familje te zonave per rreth duke punesuar te afermit e tyre.
Beja Airport
Took a drive by last week, not open yet. Does not look like it will be very soon either.

YouTube landing at Treb
First flight to Treb
Flew a 172 D-EVOC from the Fly-in-Spain crew to Trebujena Airfield on 28.10.09. It's the maintenance facility for Fly-in-Spain so lots of short hops from Jerez LEJR to Treb.
Gliders
I got my private pilot license with glider rating in 1974 at this airport in Austria after serving with the US Army in Berlin. Flew with a world champion named Haro Woedl. Great memories!

Florø airport is the westernmost airport in Norway, with the North Sea to the west, fjords and mountains to the east, and the beautiful North Sea coast to the north and south. It is a 20 minute walk to the city center, or five minutes by cab. Florø was founded in 1860 and will celebrate 150 years in 2010.
Beware of strong wind along the coast, including the airport. Remember to check METAR and TAF before departure. Also note that as since october 1. 2009 the airport do not have 100LL fuel. You may get 100LL from the local flying club at ENBL (Førde, Bringeland) 23nm to the ESE. The tower at ENBL will help you get in touch with the club.

According to the "Service de l'Information Aéronautique" (SIA), (www.sia.aviation-civile.gouv.fr)
NDB's OYE 349KHz and POY 430KHz are both discommissionned.
There are no longer NDB's on this airport.

I guess the US finally did something, where were they in June 1953 when we were totally cut off from West Berlin for about ten weeks when the Russians marched in during the East German uprising. It wasn't great to be treated as animals thereafter either nor hearing East Germans being shot by Russians soldiers either. May they rest in Peace.

re: Landed in Craiova
Reply to @robert: at EUR 130, that's actually more expensive than landing at Toronto's Pearson Airport (CYYZ)! When they set a landing fee that high, it's really a "keep out!" sign.
re: Closed
Reply to @robert: changed LZVB status to 'closed'. Thanks.
re: Closed
Reply to @robert: Updated -- thanks.
Closed
By information from LRCV opertions manager (and by info from Jepessen VFR charts) this airport is closed for several years now.
Closed
Planned to go there (aug 2009) but ATC said it is closed for more than a year.
Landed in Craiova
After spending almost a year clearing formalities regarding flight approval to Romania (my plane has only permit to fly not airworthiness certificate) I finaly landed there. All OK, but the landing fee of EUR 130 for a 600kg MTOW airplane is outrageously expensive. No fuel, (virtually) no ARO - they advised me to submit the flight plan at least 3 hours before flight (I did it over phone to LJLJ ARO one four before), ...
Otherwise quite pleasant and friendly (and empty - guess why).
Mendimet e mija
S SOPI GOSTIL
Nje Arirport kaq i mire dhe i bukur, sidomos natet nga dritat me ngjyra, dhe nuk vihvet ne pune, nuk eshte diqka e mire nga ana e shtetit, qe per ket aireport kan nevoj te gjithe SHqiptaret e veriut dhe te kosoves...............
re: When does it open
According the the Italian Wikipedia article, the airport has been open since the 1920s, and expanded its runway in April 2009 to handle jets like the B737 and A320. Current scheduled service is to Verona only.
re: When does it open
Airports don't fly anywhere. They just sit there and let the planes come to them.
Pontecagnano Airpor
I am given to understand it opened in mid 2008 and closed soon after is this still the case?
When does it open
Is the airport open and where does it fly to?
First Solo!!
Did my first sole here a looong time ago! Note the shortness of the strip which makes it good for training.
Former airbase
According to the Wikipedia article, this was once a Soviet airbase. The Estonian military left in 2001, and since then, it's been used for driver training and by some motorized paragliders and ultralights. The runway is in very bad shape.
Landing permission
It is not permitted to use Rena for civil air traffic except in emergencies.
Pilot Controlled Lights
Transmit on 123.5 for 5 seconds. Lights turn off after 12 minutes.
Spectacular approach!
The approach is an offset localizer with curved approach lights, down into a fjord. Interesting missed approach and departure procedure too. The scenery is unbelievably beautiful. Efficient service from the airport staff, reasonable Avgas price for Europe.
Information
Joint Civ/Mil airport. Civilian part is the small apron on west side of runway.
Currently served by Air Norway twice a day.
Airline service
According to Wikipedia this strip is served by Yakutia- and Polar Airlines
re: Closed?
Reply to @Jan: Thanks for the help. I've changed the status to closed.
re: Closed?
Several signs...Look close and you'll see markings on the asphalt on the west side near the yellow boxes. There is a fence/wall covering most of the old runway. And it appears they have made a go cart track on the old apron.
re: Open?
Yes, Logovushka Airfield, used by Kurgan Aviation club. Updated.
Open?
Seems its used for GA. Maybe for parachuting?
No longer an air base though so maybe change name?
re: Closed
Thanks -- I've updated the status.
re: Abandoned
Thanks -- I've changed the status.
Abandoned
According to Wikipedia it is abandoned
Closed
According to Wikipedia article linked this AB has been closed for many years.
re: Closed
English Wikipedia. Search for Chaykovsky and pick the one in Perm Krai
re: Closed
I couldn't find the article in the English Wikipedia -- is it in the Russian one?
re: Closed
Thanks for the info. If anyone finds out the status, please let us know.
re: Closed
Reply to @david: Was supposed to be a question mark after Closed in title. Don't know if it is completely closed, but it is no longer used for any mil- or private regular flights.
re: Closed
Is the runway ever used (say, to fly in new aircraft for display), or is it completely shut down?
Closed
According to Wikipedia article about Chaykovsky there is no longer an airport there.
Closed
This is now used for the Central Air Force Museum
Helicopter tours
The airport currently seems to be a base for helicopter tours:

— @david at Kukës International Airport, Albania
This was intended to be Albania's second airport with scheduled civil airline service, but some of the comments suggest that things aren't quite working out. Here's Google Translate's (not so great) attempt at translating the Albanian-language comments below (oldest to newest):
"Kukes": do not understand why it is not a airoport such work but should be left at the mercy of fate is all north of Albania who can use ......
"uran uka" (uranium boom): The ndertojete airport in Kukes is a good thing ......................................... .............
"Mendimet e mija" (My thoughts): S SOPI GOSTIL
A Arirport so good and beautiful, especially at night by colored lights, and vihvet not at work, there is something good by the state, who have need for this aireport all Albanians of the north and Kosovo .... ...........
"eshte nje nevoj njerezore" (is a human need): would be better that these comments that we are giving, go to the right ear because this is a national loss but also the first time is a precise mosvleresim Albanian government in the management of this airporti. would be a great help for the area of the northern and south western Kosovo wide. and a fact that is very real in economine Albanian, would have enabled many families and help areas for about employing their relatives.
