Purchase of Avgas from PTT
I fly a small light aircraft that uses 100LL Avgas. Am I able to visit VTCC in order to purchase fuel or do I need to give 7 days' written notice of my arrival? Do I need to pay for ground handling? If so, the cost of refuelling at VTCC would be prohibitive.
Don Mueang Airport Golf Course
It always amazes me that a major airport could possibly have a golf course between the runways!
Where else in the world but for Thailand!!!
super - sonic approach.
Mach three seemed abit extreme.
What Air Travel Used To Be Like
I hate flying because I do far too much of it as a result of my work but Loei Airport is a great little airport even if it only has one flight per day. It beats driving to Bangkok (Don Muang Airport) and certainly better than going by bus. However, to appreciate what Leoi has to offer land transportation is of course better.
May 2014
So far the NOK air has stopped the flights to Buriram Airport. A short phone call to the customer service I was informed that the flights will later continue.

Thank you - I've added the runway information to the Pilot Info tab.

I wrote about "to get flights" April 28 2012. The good news are that NOK Air will take care the flights from the next month three times per week. Thanks to everyone who was in charge to activate the route.

To get flights
There are lack of a real traffic to and from this airport. At the late of 1990,s airport had a customers and travellers with several different operators one by one. But why everything has been closed down? First Thai Airways operated with a multiple routing Bangkok-NakhonRatchasimΓ€-Buriram. This could be a new way again to enable this airport traffic and customers. For example a route together to Roi ET unused new airport.
re: re: IATA code = TDX
Reply to @nicolai: thank you very much for making the correction.
re: IATA code = TDX
Corrected it myself
IATA code = TDX
The IATA code for Trat Airport appears to be TDX according to the linked wiki page. This is missing from the database.

History
This field opened for military use in 1914, and received its first airline flights in 1924. It was a major US airbase during the Vietnam war, as well as Bangkok's main civilian airport until the new Suvarnabhumi Airport (BKK) opened in 2006. It's currently a joint-use military civilian airport, hosting the Royal Thai Air Force's 1st Air Division.
Another Great Home For A Year
I spent the year of 1972 at Khorat. Like my earlier time at Tahkli it is hard to think why a person would have such fond memories of a place ... but I do. Again I spent most of my year there building drop tanks, leading a wonderful crew of Thai civilian workers. The end of my tour there encompased the last Linebacker missions when our F-105s and F-4's flew round the clock stopping only when all the tanks we could build were used up. The B-52s from Guam and Utapao flew missions right into the "Downtown" Route packs and even shot down Migs on their own. A sad thing indeed, war, but at least we got the air war stopped ... I'll leave it to others to battle over the rights and wrongs, I served.
A Home For An Eventful year
I lived and worked at Takhli Royal Thai AB for a wonderful year of my life in 1967. There was a war on so I wonder that I consider it "wonderful" but it was .. my first real time truly away from home and holding down a really responsible job ..building drop tanks for the mssisons we were flying over North Vietnam.
I'm glad to see the old place is still going strong. The former American quarters are west of the south end of runway 36 and the shiny new maintenance complex to the est is all new in the past few years ... I dearly miss my time there and I miss the wonderful Thai workers I was priviledged to lead as we did our bit to help.
