Airport comments by @TIBC1

Hyundai Camelia Haute Apartments Heliports

🔗 Sun, 31 Mar 2019
— @TIBC1 at Hyundai Camelia Haute Apartments Heliports, South Korea

Delete, duplicate of KR-0325 for which I am responsible and I am correcting it.

KEPCO HQ Heliport

🔗 Sun, 08 Jul 2018
— @TIBC1 at KEPCO HQ Heliport, South Korea

This heliport as well as the building under it was demolished in 2017. No way to indicate this in the database as it is not an airport or airfield.

Sambu Building Heliport (demolished)

🔗 Wed, 04 Jul 2018
— @TIBC1 at Sambu Building Heliport, South Korea

According to: https://www.emporis.com/buildings/163905/sambu-building-seoul-south-korea this heliport and the building it was atop were demolished in 2017; however, how do I indicate "closed heliport," when the only option I am given is "closed airport?" Please advise.

Tagbilaran Airport

🔗 Sun, 21 Jan 2018
— @TIBC1 at Tagbilaran Airport, Philippines

This airport will soon be replaced by Panglao Island International Airport (PIIA) upon its completion, which will then become ICAO: RPVT and IATA: TAG. See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panglao_Island_International_Airport

Lucena Airport (RPUE)

🔗 Sun, 31 Dec 2017
— @TIBC1 at Former Lucena Airport, Philippines

This is a highway strip airfield as it is primarily used by motor vehicles, trucks and buses. Aviation use is limited to general aviation. I have to wonder with all the civilian traffic, how aircraft land without hitting a more vehicles or pedestrian as there is no control tower.

MICT Heliport

🔗 Sat, 16 Dec 2017
— @TIBC1 at Manila International Container Terminal (MICT) Heliport, Philippines

National Capital Region is not a choice on the province menu when editing this facility. Please add to choices as it is in effect a province.

Casiguran Airport (PH-0021)

🔗 Sun, 03 Dec 2017
— @TIBC1 at Naval Base Ernesto Ogbinar Heliport, Philippines

Delete. Duplicate item (IATA: CGG)

Fuiloro (Abisu) Airfield

🔗 Wed, 16 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Fuiloro Airfield, Timor-Leste

I have corrected the designation and dimensions of this airfield. The outline on the satellite photos as faint, but still discernable.

Oecussi Airport

🔗 Sun, 13 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Rota Do Sândalo Oecusse Airport, Timor-Leste

The VFR chart you provided is for Honolulu International Airport, not Oecussi Airport. Please fix.

Ataura Airport

🔗 Sun, 13 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Atauro Airport, Timor-Leste

This looks like a highway strip airfield, not an airport.

Maliana Airport

🔗 Sun, 13 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Maliana Airport, Timor-Leste

You have the wrong VFR chart for this airport. Your VFR covers an airport in Japan. Please fix.

Abisu Heliport

🔗 Sat, 12 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Fuiloro Airfield, Timor-Leste

The VFR chart you have listed is for Jeju-do in South Korea. Please fix. It would appear this "heliport" is really a highway strip airfield and you indicate a lengthy runway, more so than what a heliport would require. However, is this an airfield or heliport? Please advise.

Delete duplicate entry (KR-0125)

🔗 Wed, 09 Aug 2017
— @TIBC1 at Seoul National University Bundang Hospital Helipad, South Korea

🔗 Sat, 17 Jun 2017
— @TIBC1 at JASDF Tobetsu Sub-Base Heliport, Japan

This is not an airport. It is a heliport.

Pong Am Dong North (G-802) Airport

🔗 Mon, 29 May 2017
— @TIBC1 at Pong Am Dong North R802 (탁구암동 노스 R802) (G-802) Airport, South Korea

It appears to be closed as there are no aircraft to be seen and it looks like a parking lot.

KR-0081

🔗 Mon, 29 May 2017

🔗 Sun, 28 May 2017
— @TIBC1 at Munhak Heliport (C-107), South Korea

Delete this duplicate entry.

Mokpo Airport

🔗 Sun, 28 May 2017
— @TIBC1 at Mokpo Air Base, South Korea

In light of my original comment above, how do categorize this facility as it is still open as an airfield/airbase, but not as a commercial airport? Perhaps you need to add another type airport/airfield/airbase, especially if it has both a military and commercial application. Please advise.

C 519

🔗 Mon, 22 May 2017
— @TIBC1 at C 519 Heliport, South Korea

KP-0047

🔗 Sat, 29 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at Sinanju Highway Strip, North Korea

Delete this entry as it is a duplicate. Sorry about that.

C-272

🔗 Fri, 28 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at C272 Heliport, South Korea

Delete this entry as it is a duplicate. When I edited this site, it created another C-272 with more accurate data. This is the old uncorrected site.

Duplicate entry

🔗 Sun, 23 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at C 316 Heliport, South Korea

H-163

🔗 Thu, 20 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at Camp Giant H-163 Heliport, South Korea

H-163 Heliport

🔗 Thu, 20 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at Camp Giant H-163 Heliport, South Korea

Camp Giant Heliport (H-163) is located @[37°50’02”N X 126°48’56”E]; Camp Custer North Heliport (C-116) is located @[37°50’03”N X 126°48’56”E]. Is it possible that these two facilities are one and the same or is there a mistake in one or both of them? Please advise as I am totally confused. There is a heliport at H-163.

C-161 Heliport

🔗 Thu, 20 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at C 161 Heliport, South Korea

There is no sign of any heliport at this location.

Yeonpyeong-Myeon Heliport

🔗 Sun, 16 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at Yeonpyeong-Myeon Heliport, South Korea

It would appear that this heliport is associated with a nearby hospital to which it is connected by road.

🔗 Wed, 12 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at Mokpo Air Base, South Korea

Airport is closed as a commercial airport, but remains open as a military airbase.

G-712 Airport?

🔗 Tue, 11 Apr 2017
— @TIBC1 at G 712 Airport, South Korea

Is this really an "airport" or a "highway strip," something you would see in North Korea?
