Re: PVG
Multiple airports can have the same three-letter code in *different* organization systems. Yes, PVG is the IATA code for Shanghai Pudong, but PVG is also the FAA LID for Hampton Roads. Note that Shanghai Pudong won't *have* an FAA LID because that is only for airports within the United States.
Obviously the ICAO codes (ZSPD and KPVG) are therefore quite different.

The old VNCs on the wall at Rockcliffe show St. André-Avellin airport at this spot, further north of the town than the present field.
THIS IS NOT THE REAL PVG
pvg-->ZSPD--> airport in shanghai, china

Seen on an old VNC (unknown date, mounted on wall at Rockcliffe Flying Club). Recent satellite image shows a mowed grass runway and parked aircraft.
Misplaced all along.
The FAA had this misplaced the whole time.
This Airport no longer exists
The Motel and airport was sold a year or two ago and has been removed and replaced with a Travel Trailer sales display space. So Airport no longer exists.
"Dangerous" airport
This airport, with its 2,119 ft runway, gets attention as one of the world's (so-called) most dangerous airports, but that's a bit nonsensical. It's more a matter of what plane you're choosing to land there.
A Twin Otter or even DC-3 could handle it without breaking a sweat, and probably leave a lot of the runway unused; a 747 would shoot off the end at full speed and end up as a smoking wreck.
In between those extremes, it's a matter of how close you want to cut it to your plane's maximum performance, as with any airplane and runway.

Straight skis
Winter flying
Hi I’m wondering the condition of the runways during winter and if you can land and take off with straight floats ? And if so is there a contact to line up a place to tie down or even better hangar space for rent perhaps . Thanks

Waiting for me!!!
Sad that this is now slated to be closed soon!
Sad that this is now slated to be closed! I visited 11-19-21 so I could have it in my logbook before it's gone...
BCATP relief field
From @FlyingTom in a problem report:
This triangular field was RCAF Detachment Granum (for the nearby town) and was the #1 relief field for No. 7 Service Flying Training School at Fort Macleod.
Name of Airport
Maybe someday it will be the “Saint George-Southwest Utah International Airport” but currently it is the St George Regional Airport
Nice airport
Fuel pump card control wasn't working but friendly local helped out.
Really nice airport for a municipal airport
Stopped in to drop off a passenger. Friendly attendant and wasn't too scary to fuel up
