Ymen has its own METAR service but this page instead displays that of YMML. Is it possible to link the correct METAR? This is a very busy airport so would be quite useful.

Thank you

Yea Airport Non-existant/spam airport

Does this airfield actually exist?? The location is a long way from the town of Yea, and is in a narrow wooded valley. It's inconceivable that there could be an airfield there. Close to Yea is the Yeaburn airfield YYEA which is visible on the satellite images.

Thanks to @adidas for the updates.

Pakenham Airport Wrong airport location

I flew for many years as a senior pilot for Commando Skydiving Club on their C206 and BN-2A before they moved south to Tooradin. The location of the East West runway is approximately aligned on the map with Arden Avenue, Pakenham and ran the length between Koo Wee Rup Road and McGregor Road to the west. Not where indicated currently by the green cross. Contact me if you want further verification.

Regards,

David

No airport here.

There are runway outlines still visible in the satellite imagery, but the airport appears inactive and partly overgrown. Marked as closed. Thanks for the report.

Mildura Airport Other

Security Checking In did not have any seat to use when replacing footwear post scanning.

For those elderly folk, it would be very helpful to have seating after gouing through the scanner.

However , this may have already been attended to! as it was about 9 months since using the faculties.

I'm sorry to hear about the difficult. Unfortunately, this form is just for reporting database problems. I suggest passing that on to the airport authority.

Colac Airport Other

Field Elevation is 450 feet at YOLA

137m would be 450ft, so it looks like the units just got mixed up. Fixed.

Mitta Mitta Airport Wrong airport information (name, codes, frequencies, runways, etc)

From a comment: "Australian ERSA confirms YITT: RWY 14/32 gravel - 910m length"
