Ascochinga is a golf club, not airport.

ICAO code SACN is obsoleted and replaced by SAAC

it is "Comodoro Pierrestegui" airport near Concordia, Entre Ríos

IATA code: COC

location: 31°17'49"S (-31.296943), 57°59'48"W (-57.996630)

What is the phone number here?

The runway designation appears to be missing.

I've been looking for this place for so long, and much to my surprise it is now clearly identified by Our Airports...

I had spotted this grass strip with Google but wasn't sure about it being the place I had visited in 1967. I was 19, ad traveled all the way up there from Buenos Aires on a single Piper Comanche with my father and two other guys, who were pilots. One of them was Cesare Preve, as the whole place, land and production site, was owned by the Frugone & Preve Ltd. My Italian-born father was manager for that company.

What memories! It was SOP before landing to overfly the site to have someone driving to the strip to pick us up, and to sweep the strip to make sure no loose cattle was around; before take off, a careful sdrive along the strip made sure that no cows could be close enough to opt for grazing across it. Sorting out unexpected quadrupeds while taking off from a soft field on a single-engine plane with four on board could make your day.

A story was told, that when the bushes were cleared up to lay down the air strip, a peaceful family of local indios, isolated and unknown to all, were found and had to be relocated somewhere else...

Not much to add, except I hope the families now living there are healthy, happy and watch their children grow up in that marvelous natural environment ... adios amigos

Reply to @david: Ok, I can see now. (and understand the site and the page). I´ve moved the heliport position at the right site.

Reply to @ptomblin: OK, I've moved the airport to that location -- it looks reasonable. Haven't changed the runway yet.

Reply to @choppergb: thanks. I've moved "HAT" to the local identifier field (so that it appears at the top of the right sidebar, and will show up in searches, etc.), translated the name back into English, and put the Spanish name in the keywords field (it shows up at the bottom of the right sidebar). I'll do the same for the other heliports.

Reply to @choppergb: You're right, there is definitely a more obvious airport at that location, and it is closer to Yapeyu city.

I´m not sure, but for Yapeyu web pages the aeroclub is close to Yapeyu city ( 29°26'38.96"S 56°49'24.90" W) .

The MADHEL (book the airport and heliport Argentina) say rwy 04/22 but that runway isn´t 04/22 may be 16/34.

Reply to @david: Hi, HAT is the local argentina identification (like SAEZ (international) is EZE (local) and is Ezeiza airport the name)

Reply to @david: Hi, I´m the pilot (Transener pilot, and all the Transener heliport is under my responsability ). No problem with the helipad, is far away to the high-voltage lines.

Reply to @david: I've put a POI where I think he means.

Reply to @choppergb: updated -- thanks.

Reply to @choppergb: updated, thanks.

Reply to @choppergb: updated -- thanks.

Reply to @choppergb: updated -- thanks.

Reply to @choppergb: Moved -- thanks!

Reply to @choppergb: Thanks for the update. I'm not sure where to move the marker to, but please feel free to use the "Edit" tab and drag the marker to the right spot.

Reply to @choppergb: Moved and renamed.

Reply to @choppergb: Thanks for the help! I moved the marker to what looks like a helipad, though I can't imagine the pilot who would want to land on a helipad that close to a transformer station and high-voltage lines, especially in a wind! Let me know if that's the right position.

Is the HMT the transformer station designator? So it would be "Transener S.A. (HMT) Heliport" in English?

Reply to @choppergb: So into English, would that be "Transener S.A. HAT Heliport"? Does "HAT" stand for something, or is it part of the name?

The right name is ALMAFUERTE/HELIPUERTO TRANSENER S.A. HAT

MONTE CRISTO/HELIPUERTO TRANSENER S.A. (HMT)

The right position is into the electric station

RECREO/ HELIPUERTO TRANSENER S.A (HRE)

The correct position is INTO the electric station ( you can see in google)

Reply to @choppergb: Thanks -- I've merged the heleport into the airport.

Reply to @david: The runway is ok, but no the heliport.
