Hey there owner of ourairports.com. Great site. I think you should be little more strict with the comments.

Not working
As I know they are no longer in service the green colored that is on east side of Abram Rd was a pesticide type airport for small yellow aircrafts. The magenta colored on west side was a private landing stretch and the guy used that for his go kart type airplane those small ones that has a go kart engine type, and also I think he no longer use that stretch, that's his house property. It was nice to hear those planes on the area. I wish to see them again.
Closing

Design and service
Truly World class !!
down home airport
Cheapest av gas in Georgia. Front porch rocking chairs at FBO to watch takeoffs & landings. A lovable FBO dog named "Goober" to pet. Pretty scenery nearby. JZP might be the perfect small town airport.
DAE is gone!

Great Airport - Very active
Visited twice and saw lots of activity happening. Airport manager is very friendly and helpful. Its very scenic to go over the big river just to the west of the airport on climb out or on approach.
Very Nice fascility
Great airport to have a stop over or a fuel stop. Nice retaurant on site and gas stations are just a walking distance. Local community uses French only on radio....Be prepared or be motivated to go nordo. :)
Nice fascility - Unfriendly community
I did a fuel stop over from my flight to Baldwin from Qubec city here in summer 2013. Found the guy on unicom and in terminal very friendly but the pilot there renting a 172 there with his family was very dry and didnt even bother providing me any information when I requested. 'This is a club building' and I was not allwed to relax there for a bit. Ended up relaxing on grass outside the terminal listening to the radio inside.
In short, a great airport for stop over but be prepared to ignore some of the roughest or dry aviation people in the club side of the airport that I have ever come accross.
Ultralighter's Heaven
This is a small airport with lots of lively aviation spirit in it. Lots of challengers becuse of a challenger builder, inspector and a instructor on site. Also a home base for the Advanced ultralight SONEX aircraft. This is one airport where you will find minimum 'dead' aircrafts sitting collecting sun or dust. Very helpful community and the parachute school loves pilots who talk to them on radio. A easy airport to fly in, provided you talk to unicom and clear your intentions.
Rough Surface - Nice Airport
To make the matters worse, there is a drain hole in the middle of the runway about 1/3 from the east. Its marked by a flag on the north side edge of the runway. So, If you are landing with a taildragger, try to stick close to the southern edge. Used to be a very nice flying community there but things are looking to go downside. I hope that it will re-emerge into life.
Must visit ariport
Great fascilities, very friendly staff, active unicom and resonable priced restaurant for awesome breakfast. i am frequent visitor there and many times with ultralights. Makes for a great fuel stop over for longer cross countires. If the winds are more from south, expect some weird turbulence on short final for 13 due to brush line or trees. I prefer landing long in that situation. HAPPY FLYING!
Great Airport - A good alternate if the winds are high.
This is a great airoport to visit and fuel prices are resonable for a fuel stop. In line with others, the restaurant is more of a fancy restaurant user primarily by road traffic rather then pilots ...specially the economical ones like me. A fish n; chips or bugers to menu would make a good addition for having fliers drop in.
Bad runway
The referenced runway 06/24 seems to belong to the 'Semnan New Airport' in Iran, see http://ourairports.com/airports/IR-OI21
The problem is probably the coinciding identifier US-OI21 vs. IR-OI21
bad runway
The referenced runway 06/24 seems to belong to the 'Gonbad Ghabus Airport' (FAA-Code OI24) in Iran, see http://ourairports.com/airports/IR-OI24

nice airport
I think this is one of the nicer airports I have been to in the U.S. Lots of shops, restaurants. They have these cafes where you can order using ipads at the table. So everyone is sitting there with their phones out and also a huge ipad in front of them.
Short Sighted Municipality - Closing this airport in 2015
The excellent airport is slated for closure 30 September 2015. The municipal council has decided without consultation with the public to close the airport under pressure of the Provincial Government to sell the land to a nearby industry for 'possible' expansion. The province would not provide any money for the move and the local municipal council forced the facilities to consider consolidation at the nearby Greenwood Airforce Base. During the long draw-out process of deciding to close the airport, the uncertainty of the future, closed the flight training school and one repair facility. The future of aviation in the Annapolis Valley is in doubt and an excellent airport will have been destroyed

The NDB at Hamilton/Hogan field is no longer working. It has been silent for two years.
Atlantic FBO in Manhattan
I jogged by here yesterday morning on my way down the East River Greenway (with "green" in sarcastic quotation marks). It was a surprise to see the familiar Atlantic Aviation logo on a sign right beside the path, even though I knew there was a heliport around here. It looks like a nasty landing spot -- the elevated FDR drive is right on the edge of the heliport (Atlantic is tucked underneath it), so if there were an east wind, you'd have to be very careful about your landing.
KROC a cool place
KROC is a good stop before going to the southern United States. Customs there which makes it a good starting spot for the USA. USairports FBO is very clean with friendly staff. Hanger fee is a bit steep but thats the way she goes Rick. If you get a chance go into the city and grab some ribs from the Dinansour BBQ.
Great Airport
KELM is a great airport, had the oppertunity of landing on rwy 10 which has a really cool approach passing by the mountain before turning for final. Tower is super nice and the airport is very clean. A great stop to take a break !
Great on site cafe
A very good '$100.00 hamburger' destination!
Line service and fbo staff offers 'excellent customer service!
Landing and Dust Devil

Nice Grass Strip

M and B with Karen
Long weekend
On field restaurant
Cheap fuel. Friendly people. The diner is in the FBO/terminal building. Chrome stools at the bar. Tables with mismatched tablecloths. Big plate glass windows looking out at the ramp and runways. Sweet potato french fries and the hands-down best chicken (a flattened, seasoned, battered, fried chicken breast) sandwich I have ever eaten in my entire life. What is not to like about LFK?
Used to be J88
The new identifier is KAQX
Fond memories
I flew to this airport weekly in 09/10. Many fond memories of the QK staff.
