It looks legitimate, even if it doesn't look like it on the
The FAA has it at this location.
Location
33.4278097 -116.8425233 is nowhere a runway. Lots o' luck!
British Airways flights from London
Please can someone explain why the arrivals info NEVER shows when the BA flight is due? As far as your info is concerned it doesn't exist but it arrive here 5 times a week so why doesn't it show up????
Runway
Runway is a dirt strip 1000 feet by 50. Trees down both sides with 50 foot Hydro lines 250 feet from the north end of the runway. Strip is muddy in the rainy times.
Gimli Glider

One beautiful airport
Best thing about Golden airport its is location - simply gorgeous! The town itself looks a bit beaten by today's economy, but still cute.
Approaches are wide open, though terrain is quite high and circuit looks pretty "interesting" on the downwind. Look for the electric station, cables and posts while on short final northbound. Nothing special, obstacles clearly marked - just don't come in too flat.
Active helicopter traffic, so stay on the radio - and these guys are professionals! Hangglider and paraglider ramp on the mountain SE of the airport - like a huge bald spot near the top - with corresponding activity. Keep an eye on them while flying towards Alberta, following the published VFR route
Friendly and clean FBO, runway and the ramp in good conditions. Pleasure to visit.
Pilot lounge and courtesy car
Great little pilot lounge and old cop car available.
Courtesy car
There is an old Lincoln Town car available here.
woo hoo
The day I landed here I got a great workout with a 25 mph direct cross wind. So windy when I needed to leave, I decided to use a farmers field not the airstrip. Small crop duster strip. Decent pilot lounge.
Waste
Great example of our bloated wasteful government. Over staffed by government workers for "TWO" airline passengers? Really!? Small wonder we're broke.
Nice little strip
Courtesy car, food nearby. Remote and peaceful.
traffic patterns
When Griffiss was an active military base, the traffic pattern was kept to the north side of the runway: Left traffic for r/w 15 and right traffic for r/w 33. This kept the low flying aircraft away from the Rome Hospital andresidential areas of the town. Nowadays, it seems there is no traffic pattern of any kind with C-5s and C-17s roaring over the town and hospital at what appears to be lower than normal altitudes. What's going on? Are the old traffic patterns no longer published?
on final
nice crosswinds be on your toes
re: ' or 1=1 --
Nice try, but no SQL injection here.

a jem of an airpark
we found the 2 runways very smooth for turf. great place to visit and tie-down for awhile.its a small airport with a lot of potential to be a very busy place of interest. the flying club there r very helpful gang of flyers.all in all its a cool place to touch-down and hang out on the huge deck over looking the runways
re: Poor food choices
you serious ? Vancouver has to be the worse airport for Duty Free.....Bourbon and Cuban cigars they have NO idea and they move at a snails pace
gimme the east coast any day
Public or Private?
Not sure if this is a public airport. Anyone have any idea?
Love the free landing
It's nice to land at an airport that wants the business for their community, CYPD is a friendly airport, cheaper fuel, no landing fees for private light aircraft as specified in their literature. However, like all airports as a port of entry make sure you know the entry procedures and when customs will serve you and the associated costs.

Fishing
Where is the best fly in lake for trophy northern pike fishing?
Landing at the Airport
Some years ago I had the pleasure of landing and taking off again from the old air base. One runway was not too bad considering its age, but I believe it's probably deteriorating quickly now. I remember when the hangers were there sad to see them all gone now.
re: ICAO identifier
Reply to @ptomblin: It is "Panama Pacifico"; I'm sure 100% because just on this month.... I'm flying daily in this airport. Actually I don't know how we could update the name in this website. Ciao ciao.
re: ICAO identifier
Reply to @antongervax: Is it "Howard Airport", or is it "Panama Pacifico" as my Eurocontrol data has it?
NOISE NUISANCE
Please stop flying over Lake Simcoe. It is as you comment below says (those living in the trailor park) utterly annoying and completely destroying the peace and solitude of the lake.
ICAO identifier
ICAO identifier of this airport now is "MPPA".
767-300 parking

Nice little airport.
Stopped for fuel, before tank was topped off the fuel person had gotten me a car and a reservation at the Pioneer motel in town.
Food
Great restaurant!
Not as scary as you might think.
Great place to rent a car (or borrow) to drive to Fisherman's Wharf.

Burning man!
Amazing place to fly to! You got to go some time!
custom checking bags on yourr way back from colombia
I go to colombia every month and I feel so bad when I came back because they have no respet for the travelers one thing is them doing they job as a custom officer and another thing they taking everything out bag put it all over the table them when they are done they tell you put it back in like if you work at the airport after giving me the face like if you dont do it I put you in jail. I think that no atraveler should be treat by a custom oficer unless is doing something wrong.
Vancouver wa
Cool
Free Parking.
Ideal Place for Corporate Overnights into Asia or US
It is only 20 NM from Honolulu International but
Honolulu is so busy there is little parking space and very
expensive - $1,000 / night for large jets.
Here you have competitive fuel rates, free parking and
a friendly FBO.
Ask for Fred Turshman.......tell him the other Fred sent you
