From a problem report: "Grass Runway 08L-26R does not exist. There is only the Emergency Landing site, which is not an official Runway. Heli-Runway 07-25 should be added."
Vienna International Airport is the international airport of Vienna, the capital of Austria, located in Schwechat, 18 km southeast of central Vienna and 57 kilometres west of Bratislava, the capital of Slovakia. It is the country's largest airport and serves as the hub for Austrian Airlines as well as a base for low-cost carriers Wizz Air and Ryanair. It is capable of handling wide-body aircraft up to the Airbus A380. The airport features a dense network of European destinations as well as long-haul flights to Asia, North America and Africa. In 2020, the airport handled 7.8 million passengers, a 75.3% decrease compared to 2019 due to the collapse of air traffic during the COVID-19 pandemic.
There are actually *two* helipads in the LKH clinic. One is located on top of the surgical ward (the highest building of the clinic, located on the western edge of the area), the other one is near the pediatric (on the northeastern corner of the clinic). Both are clearly visible on Googlemaps.
My visit on 14 Aug 2012 allowed me to fly a C172 with my cousin's son-in-law. A beautiful little airport with private flying club. A mix of sailplanes, motorigliders and powered aircraft. The C172 (actually an F172, built in France under license) rents for 195 Euros/hr wet. Fuel sold for 2.45 Euros/litre. We are so lucky in Canada. We flew west following the Danube to Melk,dd a 180, then all the way to Vienna as far a ATC wuld let us. Then back to Stockerau. A beautiful trip to remember. Upon landing, enjoyed a few cold local beers, right out of a vending machine. Now where would you find that in Canada.
Sorry but I couldn't find a proper location to add my comment to except under my fav airport which is LOWW.
I checked the DOWNLOADS page but couldn't download the database files out there. Eg., the downloaded airports.csv file shows only the header information although the download page warns about a big filesize. It's ca.300kb only and empty.
Can you pls guide me on downloading the dbase files? Thank you!
I never saw the airport, but Mariazell was a fun day-trip from Vienna, esp. during the ski season. Went there several times (by train) during the winter of 72-73.
My conversion script didn't like the fact that you don't have a designation for the grass strip but it looks parallel to the asphalt strip so I named it "13G/31G".

It looks like a forest and, yeah, it is a forest and definitively not a heliport.
Maybe the heliport of the hospital about a km west was meant, although that one is not open to public.
