Came by Boat, got lifted up by a winch, but spent a sunny afternoon sitting on the Helipad exchanging travel stories to the more unsual spots. Really enjoyed 'Room Tour'.

re: Pembrey NDB removed from service
Reply to @mforte: Done. Thanks for the update.
re: Wrong latitude
Updated โ thank you.
Fixed location.
GAP is an aeromodeling (R/C) field located just to the SE of the larger general aviation airport. Note that it is far shorter than the listed 1969'.
Private?
Looks like it might well be private aka "personal" - always hard to tell from far away.
VIDF - NNS Pithoragarh Airport India
Just a minor info concerning the information received by clicking the relevant symbol in the world map for the a.m. location. Not only is it miswritten > Pithorgarh < but more important it is not located in the State of Uttar Pradesh, but in the State of Uttarakhand. Correction shoudn't be a great deal, should it ?

Airstrip reopened!
Although not listed on Portuguese AIP's official sources yet (specifically the 'VFR Manual'), this airstrip has been reopened and certified since 2019 for ultra light/sport aircraft
Per Wikipedia
TXL saw its last flight on 8 November 2020 after all traffic had been transferred gradually to the new Berlin Brandenburg Airport until this date. It has been legally decommissioned as an airfield after a mandatory transitional period on 4 May 2021. All government flights were also relocated to the new airport with the exception of helicopter operations which will stay at a separate area on the northern side of Tegel Airport until 2029.
home of the RAF Lightning's of no 5,no 11 and the Lightning
RAF Binbrook as an airfield is in a sorry state.runways and taxyways gone and the site is a haulage yard. Lightning F6 XR724 is looking sad and unloved despite flying home to Binbrook in 1992 after Warton finished using it as a chase aircraft for radar tests. it was hoped it would remain flying on the airshow circuit if the C.A.A. would allow. which they didn't. after runways and taxyways were ripped up and disputes with the new land owners, XR724 sits stranded,needing massive amounts of engineering,time and love to see it hopefully join Bruntingthorpe's 2 fast taxying Lightnings.
21 Apr 2021 Accident
US Army CV-22 Osprey accidentally destroyed this helipad's surface on 21 Apr 2021. Whoops! https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/us-military-helicopter-helipad-destroy-addenbrooke-hospital-b931223.html
odd place for a airport
YEAH VERY ODD
(no subject)
Why insist on removing it? This is a correct mention of a (no longer active) aerodrome, isn't it?
Not sure why tagged as a "spam airport".
This definitely exists, clearly visible on Google and OSM sat-maps.
Update 2021
Reopened as of September 2019, primarily being used to store aircraft for Vueling during the COVID crisis.
Following international practice
Most countries in the world do not recognise Russia's annexation of Crimea. Until/unless that changes, we will continue to list this airport is in an occupied region of Ukraine. Please do not edit to change that โ repeated efforts to change it will result in account suspension.
Closed since 1977.
Microsoft Flight Simulator lists this, hilariously, as "USEU Severo-Kurilsk". Okeanskoye has been closed and unusable since at least the 1970s.
re: Crimea
Hi Bill35! In the current iteration of the database: neither Crimea nor Sevastopol are selectable as independent entities or as subdivisions of Russia, only as subdivisions of Ukraine. The United Nations continues to consider Crimea and Sevastopol as Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia. There are instances where OurAirports diverges from strict UN interpretation (ie. Taiwan, Kosovo) and note that the islands of the southern Kuril chain are reckoned as strictly Russian and not Japanese (mirroring decades of de facto control), but for the most part, I believe this site adheres to UN and IATA policy.
Remanded to Website Owner
I am too busy adding unlisted airports and heliports throughout the world to continue to deal with this regional spat. I have remanded this to the OurAirports administrator for an official decision. If he decides to add Crimea and Sevastopol as subdivisions of the Russian Republic, then that's up to him.
Please stop moving this airport to Russia.
Unless and until the UN recognizes the occupation of the Crimean Peninsula by Russia, we should continue to list all airports in Crimea as being in Ukraine. There is no subdivision for Crimea or Sebastopol under the Russia heading. This is not the time or place for nationalistic sentiment -- this is simply abiding by the good-faith standards of database maintenance.
To be reopened by 2023
Apparently under (re)construction as Vlorรซ International Airport.

Please update
Remove old ESKS (strรคngnรคs AB) as it is interfering with some programs using this database. Also this airport now has airliner service after a big expansion, ref wikipedia.
New airport
Could this old please be removed as it is not existing anymore.
Please add the new ESKS instead. Scandinavian Mountains airport (IATA: SCR)

This airport has an NDB:
BR -... .-. 388 kHz
fast baggage handling
Your baggage is usually in the moment available you enter the arrivals area.

You may cross the runway when hiking the beautiful coastline. An alarm sounds to announce air traffic.
Re: Camรญ Heliport
This name was incorrect. Camรญ in Catalan means path, and therefore Camรญ Heliport is "Heliport Path", the name of the adjacent road. The correct name (Terra Guindaldes) has been applied to this heliport.
re: Sint-Truiden is a much bigger airfield than Goetsenhoven
Reply to @DirkHaverals: Correction : the color of the icons switch also when a took a look again and I don't know why. Guess I am new here . . .
Sint-Truiden is a much bigger airfield than Goetsenhoven
The icons (purple and green plane on the map) of the airfields EBTN and EBST should be switched. EBTN (Goetsenhoven) is a small private airfield, EBST is much larger and has much more facilities.
