re: Frenchy's Cassette Tape - The Art of Flying
I still have the 8 track tape.
Formerly Pendleton Airpark
Used to be Pendleton Airpark, 77NY. Note the unusual runway designation, E-W rather than 09-27.
Great airpark!
Flew in today for an open house for a couple of the properties on the field. Nice place!

The best fish and chips!
I heard the rumors, it took me a while to venture down here, but the fish were phenomenal! I loved the theme of the restaurant (very similar to Randy's at Boeing (RIP).
Not much left to land on!
Maybe for a helicopter, or for Scrappy or Draco (RIP), but most of the airfield was eroded away
Fuel Stop on the way to KMKV
Fueled up here. Very friendly Operator and gave me a free water.
Cherokee 6/300 lived here
I met a couple of gentlemen on a Cherokee 6/300 I was interested in. Sadly I came home empty.
New Airport to me
Stopped in for Fuel on my way home from Louisiana to look at an airplane.
Permanent Closure.
Stopped over to deliver parts.
Nice airport. Nice courtesy car that they allowed us to reserve ahead of time.
Out for a Cruse
Nutradrip parts delivery
2022 Google Maps imagery
New airfield visible in 2022 GMaps.
CLOSED
Per FAA airport is closed. I personally drove by while it was still listed as opened. I was shocked to discover how horrid it was. There was no maintenance going on. It was actually highly dangerous should a plane think it was safe to land here in an emergency. I contacted the FAA who investigated and determined it was indeed now closed. The owner had passed away and nobody notified the FAA that the airport was closed now so they were unaware. It is now listed as closed through the FAA as well. DO NOT LAND.
This may be defunct
I live in the area and while Foreflight does also recognize this airport, the geolocation is on top of railroad tracks and it is behind a mass transit train station.
Stopped for fuel
Nicely maintained airport nice fuel station
Flew up here for an afternoon because Morris is closed
Nice little airport unfortunately no fuel

Looks like a brand new fbo. Great service. As of mid 2022 it’s pricey but I write this with Jet A at $8 at most places
My favorite small town airport
I have landed here dozens of times to visit the in-laws. The first time was at night! It's a local family that owns it and offers good fuel prices. Tie down near the road or ask if there's hangar space. The paved strip is narrow, but there's lots of grass around it to use if necessary.
A wonderful airport for observing aircraft
I base my Grumman Tiger here. The FBO Journey's Aviation is very helpful. There is a place to sit to watch the many aircraft that land and takeoff, including gliders, singles, a few twins, both piston and small jets. There are even occasional parachute jumpers! The fenced in area in front of parking has a mock runway. EAA Chapter 1627 provides Young Eagle flights on spring and summer Saturdays, but sign up in advance at https://www.eaa.org/eaa/youth/free-ye-flights/become-a-young-eagle .
AOE
It is an AOE but you need to obtain an Overflight Permission to use it as an AOE
Took us about 20 minutes to clear custom
Very friendly
Beautiful Facility and Quick Service
The FBO was fast and efficient
Good Fuel prices and great pilot lounge
Great hospitality
Recently visited for fuel and overnight stop
Very helpful and great service

re: I Took My Instrument Checkride With Jean
Hello, I came across this website today trying to find out what happened to Rose Aviation at Hawthorne Airport and saw your post. My name is Linda Silvertooth, I am the Linda you mentioned in your post. I worked at Rose from 1977-1981 and have kept in touch with several other friends from those days (Kathy Hesse, Kevin Clover). I knew Jean as the former owner and and as an FAA Pilot Examiner, Art was the owner at the time I was there. Jean passed away in the early 80’s and Art passed away in 2018. I know Claude is gone also but I don’t remember when he passed. I took several check rides from both Jean and Claude…..great people!! I saw Don Pedersen in 2013 at a Rose reunion, he was the Chief of Police for Culver City at that time, but I think he has retired. Were you at Rose Aviation during those years? I went on to work for the FAA for over 35 years and retired in 2020. It was a great time during those days at Rose! Linda
Fuel stop
Would like to see in daytime. Stopped in for fuel because 05C doesn't have after hours fuel.
Dropped off a new freind
I would like to see it in daytime. Maybe even try out the Mexican. They need to put in self-serve fuel
Runway Cafe
I've never seen an airport diner that served pad thai before. Or mariscos. On the same menu as your classic burgers and steaks, and all excellent!
Stopped in for fuel
Just stopped in for fuel on my way by.
Plain little Airport
Went down do deliver parts and to work on a center pivot
Heliport coverage by the FAA
... is NOTORIOUSLY bad. Even heliports that have continually existed for the last forty years are routinely given GPS coordinates up to 10 miles off course.
This heliport doesn't exist.
This heliport doesn't exist, and hasn't for *years*, if it ever did. There is no pad here, or anything else for a helicopter to land on besides sodden grass. There is no access besides a nearby dirt track. The Sun Drilling Products building is located miles away from the given location. Easily accessible satellite imagery with resolution adequate for spotting a helipad became available with Landsat 4 in 1982: there's no pad then, or in any year.
Fun place to land
The grass rwy is still maintained… landed there a bunch of times in 2021. Its not charted and you have to call or know the owner
I took a helicopter flight here
I'd always wanted to ride in a helicopter, so my wife bought me a ride on one -- I actually got to control it for a few minutes.
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.
THIS IS NOT THE REAL PVG
pvg-->ZSPD--> airport in shanghai, china
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.

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...
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
If it did exist, it wasn't here.
FAA is notoriously bad at plotting correct lat/longs of heliports. This probably did exist somewhere within a 5 mile radius of this spot. AirNav doesn't list RI14 anymore at any rate.

The runways are actually 01-19.
