Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Old Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, China:

Good thing that old airport closed. It was too small, difficult approach, and short runway. It couldn't be expanded because of building surrounding the airport. So it was replaced by the new airport in 2004 and is following a similar fate as Kai Tak Airport, to be redeveloped into something else. And have any pictures of the passenger terminal and facilities?

I am also facing the same issue with my wife. They are asking for a Filipino who is a resident of Malaysia to raise a invitation letter. Frankly, i do not know anyone in such capacity moreover no strange would stick their head to guarantee another stranger. This procedure is so full of shit! The Phil embassy in malaysia have no right to stop a Malaysian in his own country to invite his wife to his homeland. For GOD sake, this is my dam country!!!!

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Diosdado Macapagal International Airport, Philippines:

I am flying in two days to KL to see my husband who is a Malaysian is coming home for the Chinese new year, he works in UK. I am having anxiety though I have my marriage contract with me. He booked my return ticket, and I have sufficient fund in my bank account. I only worry that I don't have an invitation letter as its hard for him to get one from the Phil Embassy in Malaysia as they require that he should have atleast 2 Filipinos as guarantors. He doesn't know any Filipino in Malaysia because he has been working in Uk for long time. What chances will they offload me?

I got offloaded last july and my husband has to come to the Phils. to escort me giving them 'tip' daw as we passed through.. nakakahiya talaga!

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Muzaffarpur Airport, India:

Muzaffarpur airport must be started.

There are so many reasons

1. People who go abroad, have to go via patna.

2. Businessmen who wish to fly frequently, have to waste much time.

3. Many companies could not come for campus selection in Muzaffarpur Institute of Technology beacause the HRs have not got much time to travel via road.

4. Tourists from abroad for vaishali face problems.

Thank you for the feedback. OurAirports is a community-maintained site, like Wikipedia, so we're always looking for better information. Do you happen to know the correct location for Okara Airport? Or is this one of the situations (common in some other countries) where a stretch of highway is designated as an emergency landing strip?

[OMAD] "closest obstacle on apprch rw31" by Anonymous Flier

Tue, 03 Jan 2012 16:01:02 -0500

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Bateen Airport, United Arab Emirates:

we use lido (lufthansa nav charts) o/b instd of jepps , so this mosque ( Sheikh Zayed) is NOT mentioned or drawn somehow in our app and facility charts . On a night apprch with good visibility to rw31 OMAD I was not expecting to see the minaret above the level of our wingtip (A321) to my left at a distance of approx 250meters which was not incld in our briefing naturally in this case .We were on the glidepath 0.80nm to the rw31 tdz which we were approx. 250agl or some higher maybe ,and the top of the minaret is declared as 350ft or so by wikipedia . So that 's why the MDA is declared as more than 500agl and vis of 2000m for CAT1 ils , I came to the point that even for good visibility needs more outside scan and localizer or other navigation accuracy has to be judged MORE carefully before and during the approach.

Take off weight for catC a/c is well regulated down to 70ies ( tons) for a a/c with normal max 89tons for rw13 and also for rw31 down to 80ies .

Now I am looking for the UAE aips , I hope that they are easily reachable thru the net. DO YOU HAVE ANY INFO OR EXPERIENCE ABOUT THIS ISSUE ?

well, if this is the reason then I heard over the radio in Vigan that local officials already announced the start of construction. I hope and pray that this be done the earliest time coz malls in Vigan are overtakingly sprouting one after the other. Meaning people are coming heavily to Vigan, the cultural and commercial center, and the center of politics and religion! The church in Vigan is an Archdicoese.

Vigan is the old Ciudad Fernandina, the ecclessiastical center of the North, center of education, trade and commerce, a UNESCO protected cultural heritage, it was declared by UNESCO which no one is a UNESCO City except for Vigan. Vigan City is a metropolitan surrounded by 5 municipalities. It is the third oldest city / settlement in the Philippines which is manifested by the old commercial districts and residential structures . It is a tourist center and destination. It is so close to the province of Abra having no airport.

needs to put lights along the runway, a tower and a big terminal to attract airlines to operate. Vigan is a very strategic location economically, in military & air defense, because Vigan lies at the shores of the West Philippine Sea near Macau, Hon Kong, Hanoi, Bangkok , Ho Chi Minh (Vietnam).
