Terrible
DFW is terrible, every time I go my bags either get lost or stuck at the airport. My flights always get delayed at least 2 hours 0/10
An Empty Place.
I went from my home airport of DCA to DAY, it is amazing how it there are direct flights. We were on a CRJ-900 that was 3/4s Full but when we walked to the baggage claim it was long but nobody was there, like nobody. Even the people on our plane, the place was deserted but eventually we got to baggage claim.
Anguilla
I have been to AXA around 10 times and the people were so nice! We got through customs fast and easily. The airport was clean and it was a 9/10 (the airport is a little small)
Mystery solved
Posted address on FAA and AirNav is incorrect, Western Surgery Center is adjacent to Cache Valley Hospital in North Logan.
CGI - Great Airport
I've only visited by automobile so far so I can't speak on specifics like fuel and related services.
CGI is a small regional airport that's big on amenities. Great FBO for passengers and pilots alike. There's a good restaurant called The Pilot House that has a great view overlooking the flight line and runways. One carrier (Contour Airlines, as of August 2023) based here that has affordable flights to Nashville, TN.
Everyone I've encountered here has been friendly.
Batman
i was told this is where Batman lives...??
The Red Baron was here.
We stopped to pick up a passenger on our way home from Indiana and the Red Baron landed just after we did.
re: Better get it right
Reply to @Randallksparks: It is quite short and narrow. The trees were a bit unnerving but I got it right and stuck it down on my first flight as a PPL.y CFI was great.
Looks vary nice
We had people waiting to pick us up and it was after hours so we didn’t go into the FBO. But it was vey clean and mowed up nice
Port
So baskino.me good airports
Air
Wow, what?!
Fact about SLK!
During the 1980 Lake Placid Olympics runway 05-23 was stretched to be able for a Boeing 747 to land!
Airport might move
Heard they want to move the airport about 50 ft northward of the road to make room for more development but that’s only what I heard, might not happen but who knows
Mystery solved
The FAA and AirNav coordinates placed this incorrectly well to the north, but a chance spot of N7802K (private Cessna 180J Skywagon) observed taking off from there on 17 Feb 2023 finally solved this mystery
Duplicate
Turns out this is the actual location of TA55 Del Valle, whose FAA coordinates were way too far north.
sorry
I AM very sorry of confusing that airstrip with CYSH, my brain was stupid at that time.

It would be cool if San Miguel had an airport
Busy military training field
Clean and nice FBO (Freeman) with a little restaurant and store. Getting an Uber is time consuming and the pattern is filled with Air Force trainees. The short base pattern to a parallel runway got me a little nervous when I saw a plane coming right at me before he turned to 8L. But overall a decent experience. Fuel cost is reasonable.
Nice airport
FBO was open Operator was friendly and helpful. Inexpensive fuel.
Nice Facility with Courtesy Car
Nice unmanned FBO with showers if needed and a Courtesy Car.

Came here 12 days before the fire broke out
Never thought it would be my last
Not sure if they plan on rebuilding the town, it had 122 building with a population of 2,400 ( estimated ) and all was lost, all animals still in Fox were killed
Do not confuse with Smiths Falls Airport (CYSH)
The main airport for Smiths Falls is CYSH, about 8 nm to the northeast. This is a private grass strip that is visible in the satellite imagery and included on OpenStreetMap (no other information available).
Fire damage
Facilities damaged in wildfires during spring 2023.
WHOOPS
Sorry, but I messed up.
Missing from website.
I had to add this in due to the fact it’s not on le website, also for some reason the ICAO and IATA codes were not working, so I had to do some random words. (ICAO : CYSR / IATA : YSR)
9NC0 is in Charlotte, though, right?
I think the correct designation for Raleigh East is W17, at least per flightaware, airportguide, and airnav.
Those 3 sites also show 9NC0 as being in Charlotte.
Infamy
Once used for drug smuggling by the so-called "Columbus Air Force".
Emergency use airfield.
While CGAS Casco Cove closed in 2010, runway 2/20 remains available for emergency use as of 2023 per AirNAV.
re: (no subject)
Marker has been moved.

It’s a nice dirt airport, it’s been busy with the wildfires lately with planes and helicopters landing
Fuel price is still ok
5.34 in May 2023
Former N/S farm airstrip ...
Now long since overshadowed by the massive Michael Heizer art installation, "City", which is many times larger than this airstrip ever was.
re: (no subject)
Reply to @JitendraPS: Wrong Alexandria, that's Borg El Arab International Airport serving Alexandria, Egypt, and this is Alexandria Airport which is a small rural airport serving Alexandria, Indiana, USA. Please be aware there are many localities in the world with duplicated names.

re: Location not correct
Reply to @phicong: Moved. Thanks for the report.
Location not correct
The actual field is slightly to the northeast on the other side of the road.
re: Pixelated -- military stuff
Reply to @david: No longer an issue now that we've moved to Leaflet and ESRI satellite imagery.
Airline service
I notice that Hanscom has airline service now -- great alternative to (overcrowded) KBOS. I've updated the record.
Amazing scenery
The views coming into this airport are incredible!
re: Update, airport closed from Google maps view.
Reply to @mikeiaka: whoops, it’s the runway that seems to look like that’s it’s getting demolished.
Update, airport closed from Google maps view.
Seems to look closed, so I settled it from open to closed.
Runway A-OK (in the middle)
Longest DT that I’ve ever overflown (3300’), but that’s the crumbing half. The remainimg usable runway is in fine condition, far better than the ramp which will need a gingerly low-power taxi to minimize flinging FOD. Speaking of taxis, get that pre-arranged with your lodging because you are quite a way from the handsome town. We loved the Casona de Tete near the center. Only five rooms! A truly worthwhile, memorable stop.

This airport is really clean and helpful for all of us..
Sad little place that has been neglected
Stopped by for an hour to check out a potential job. Spray plane was buzy but the former FBO is now a water district office so there is no public bathroom available. Sad to see an airport get neglected.
Nice little airport can sneak in under the Peoria Charlie.
Picked up a passenger on the way to Owensboro. Talked to FAA when on the way home.
Nice place
Dropped in for a couple of hours. Ate at the Moonlite BBQ Place. I think it was as good as advertised.
re: Closed
Reply to @ND8D: thanks, I aready made it closed.
Closed
Runway basically destroyed. No aircraft operations in years.
