Autoland
Hi all.
Just wondering why aircraft don't do auto landings with all the money that was spent on upgrading the new terminal/runway.
re: misplaced
I moved the icon to the vicinity of the hospital for now -- it's difficult to make out the exact helipad location on Google Maps.
re: misplaced
Eurocontrol has a heliport at this location, called "GRAZ LKH" with ICAO id "LOGH".
misplaced
I would not recommend landing here ;)
It looks like a forest and, yeah, it is a forest and definitively not a heliport.
Maybe the heliport of the hospital about a km west was meant, although that one is not open to public.
Tried to fill in the missing parts
...Seems as though some of the parts I couldn't find, anyone else care to do it, here is the official airport map for BRR/EGPR... http://www.ead.eurocontrol.int/eadbasic/pamslight-20C1DD9F3B9A28A0588112859BCAF3DD/7FE5QZZF3FXUS/EN/Charts/AD/AIRAC/EG_AD_2_EGPR_2-1_en_2010-10-21.pdf

rescue flights could be based there (OEAMTC C4 needs a new helibase!)

re: Civilian carriers V Military aircraft
You refer to the DC-10 as an old airframe, and yet you prefer the VC-10, which first flew nearly 50 years ago? I'm willing to bet the DC-10 is *way* more fuel efficient and cheaper to operate. Probably safer too. And according to Wikipedia, the only flying VC-10s are tankers - the rest are there for spare parts.
Wikipedia also says that some of the Tristars passenger/tanker combos, and some of the passenger Tristars have counter measures against ground fire so they are used to fly people into possibly hostile places like Iraq and Afghanistan. So it's not that they don't use the Tristars, just that they don't waste them on moving people around in safe airspaces.
Civilian carriers V Military aircraft
Why do we use Civilian carriers (normally the cheapest bidder, like the recently bust 'Fly Globespan', or the oldest airframes, like Omni Air's DC-10s) when the sides of the runway at Brize are lined with RAF VC-10s and Tristars? What is the point having RAF passenger aircraft if we don't use them regularly?

Bystrzyca Klodzka Airfield & Junkers Ju-390 in 1945
This airfield interestingly appears to be the airfield from which the almost mythical Nazi Bell was flown by Junkers Ju-390 to Bodo, Norway about 17/18 April 1945. SS Lt Gen Sporrenberg and SS Hauptsturm Rudolf Schuster both gave depositions after WW2 saying the aircraft departed from an airfield at Klodzko, or west of Opole.
New
I was travelling via Moscow to Gelendhzik and discover a very brand new, but also very small airport - somehow funny - with no luggage belt. When I left, one aircraft to St. Petersburg was delayed and due to this, the "terminal" completely overcrowded...I liked it. reisen.cc

re: WX
Reply to @Chally: Thanks for the information. All the TAF and METAR information on OurAirports currently comes from a free US government source -- it's complete for Canada, the US, and Western Europe, as far as I can tell, but likely misses some reports from smaller stations elsewhere.
WX
Metar and Taf are only available from Russian Met office
wrong coordinates
Be aware that the coordinates indicated in the approach plates are wrong by about 300ft.
This is still an oddment from the cold war times.
Navigator
Non russian aircrafts must have a navigator on board. Use the parking stands on the south side of the apron because the surface load bearing capacity.
