re: Neato!
Reply to @bcrosby: I haven't tried Herb's yet (not sure about permissions and runway length), but it seems that there are now two easy fast-food stops in the area -- this service centre, with its own runway, and Les Cèdres Airport (CSS3 -- "Cedars" to anglophone pilots) a bit to the south, which has a truck stop right across the highway from the airport last I was there.
Neato!
Wow.. that's pretty cool. Handy if your airplane uses mogas ;)
Private airstrip
This is a private, paved airstrip attached to a service centre (rest stop) near Vankleek Hill, Ontario, at the junction of highways 417 and 34. I found out about it reading comments on the web, and verified its location (and some parked planes) using Google satellite view.
SJU Latin American Airport
And it needs more Latin American airline service.
Demolition of war-time hangars
This site has been designated a Heritage site back in the 90's however, the DND still wants to demolish the hangars and other structures on the airport. More at the Globe and Mail:
Kacy J's
The restaurant is reopened and the new people couldn't be nicer. Took some family up flightseeing and the owners even brought out a portable so that those on the ground could listen to the exchange with the tower.
museum is shambles
I used to stop at this field/museum back in '80's when driving to Chattanoga for training when working for EME.....lots for aircraft back then...really a shame to see it now...back then I could just wander around and take pics for hrs.....that seems to have been when the most a/c were there......does anybody have a complete list of all the a/c and the total inventory of the museum.....I remember several comm type military vans/trailers...I stopped there in about nov. of 2006......and I could have cried...that place had alot of potential...
please be advised
Dunnville is an ultralight friendly airport. There is an active jump school here also so don't overfly the field. See the canada flight supplement for info re : traffic patterns
Closed in 1945
The field appears to use the standard triangle layout used for the BCATP.
Dog Creek is mentioned on the following websites:

re: Airport
I often fly low-ish over this field on my way to CYAM. I was curious about the selection of planes there. Some day I'll land and say 'hi', but after 3-4 hours of flying from Ottawa, I usually just want to finish my flight to the Soo.
Airport
Great little place to stop, no landing or tie down fees. A lot of interesting old planes to look around at. We had a cup of coffee and wnadered around, the owner offered us his vehicle to go for lunch if we wished.

FAA Identifier RVR
It is also known as RVR as well as Ceiba International Airport. It replaced the Fajardo Airport
re: Need to document the history
One runway looks as though it was 7000 feet long with the others at 6000 and 5500 feet. My guess is military operations during ww2
re: Need to document the history
well what do you know? from satellite images it looks as though it was at one time quite substantial? Was it for the war? How long was it in operation?
re: airport
You can get the latitude/longitude from the "Pilot Info" tab.
re: Great!
Is this your airstrip? I saw what appeared to be a Cessna 170 taking off from that strip a few weeks ago. It was some type of older tail-dragger. Was that yours?
airport
how about an address on the website? it would be nice to be able to put that into my gps and just go to it...
Great!
My favorite strip, and the only reason I keep my plane.
Use with permission only! Not a public airfield!
MINE!
Hodges Airpark Breakfast 11-14-09
There's a good breakfast served every third Saturday morning at Bill's hangar, starting around 0800. Lots of folks fly in for this so monitor 122.9 for runway 12 or 30. Park at the end of the row of T-hangars on the SE end. Several of us drive/fly up to Briar Patch airport (9GA1) for the EAA meeting and occasional lunch. Very casual meeting, mostly just meeting folks and talking flying.
re: Closed
I confirmed online and changed the status -- thanks.
Closed
Note that Blaine airport closed on Dec 31, 2008
re: Gods Country
I also have a cabin on the lake. And if you're a flyer, I think I know who you are.
Clubhouse operational!
Pilots, when flying into Beiseker there is now a place to relax and take a break. The Beiseker airport clubhouse is a volunteer run "terminal" facility. There is chairs to sit in and a washroom in the back. Dial up the emergency frequency to get in the door. Thanks in advance for dropping by. While in Beiseker, Fuel is available from the Alberta Skydivers.

re: Can't find this airport
This new location is certainly closer to Sliker Road.
re: Can't find this airport
This certainly looks more convincing. I'll put it at the location you suggested, at least until we find more official information.
re: Can't find this airport
I believe from speaking with locals that this is the correct location:
40 degrees 44' 56.64" N 74 degrees 51' 46.03" W
100LL
A great facility now owned/operated by Sobeys. I used up the last 100LL just before a long weekend. So a call to verify availability might be in order.
Self-serve fuel
Self-serve fuel systems at CYRP, CYSH and now CYCC all work great and pricing is usually comparable.
First plane!!
I'm a super big fan of this airport, as I attend university several miles away. Years ago, I discovered this small, remote, unheard of, 1500 foot dirt landing strip while flying around on the Microsoft Flight Simulator. I have never seen any airplane land on this strip, ever! It is quite possibly the loneliest airport, ever! Local residents use the strip as a place to exercise their dogs. In fact, several months back, my family and I had a nice picnic on the runway, which resembles more of a driveway, or an unmaintained dirt road then a designated spot for aircrafts to land. I'd estimate that you could count on your fingers the amount of air traffic that this airport sees every year. Anyways, I was driving back from a run I had in Rancho Del Oso State Park yesterday, when to my amazement, I saw a Cessna 170 taxiing along the runway. I slammed on the breaks, and stopped on the side of the road, to get a glimpse of a plane taking off from an airport I thought I'd never see used for its intended purpose. I have to say, it was AMAZING! This airport is now my favorite airport, by far! When I become a pilot of my own, I'll be this airport's number #1 visitor.
my first airport
I learned to fly with Ernie at Trinca in a J-3 in 1961. Then I bought my Stinson 108 to take my license. I left Trinca and moved to another state. When I flew back, I was porposing. I asked Ernie to do some dual to find out the cause. He said I had been flying at too many paved airports and wasn't following the undulations of the runway. No more problem. I had the Stinson from Maine to San Diego. It's true, you can learn to fly well at Trinca, and have some fond memories to take with you. I still fly when I get a chance, and my son flies for Delta.
