Comment by @olh on Bodø Airport, Norway:

Bodø is the main commercial airport and main NATO-base in the Arctic region of Norway. It is also the home base for one of the worlds oldest airlines (and the most punctual in Europe), established in 1934. It operates nearly 350 singel flight per 22 hours, year around.

Bodø is also the home of Norsk Luftfartsmuseum (http://www.luftfart.museum.no/), the museal authority on aviation in Norway.

Bodø is the regional center for an area the size of Denmark and has a lot of tourist activity to offer. One very popular attraction is the maelstrom "Saltstraumen", situated a few miles outside the city. Saltstraumen was depicted by Jules Verne in one of his books, as being the strongest in the world.

BOO is home base for search and rescue helicopter, De Havilland DHC-6/300 Twin Otter light transport squadrons and F-16 squadrons.

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Florø Airport, Norway:

Florø airport is the westernmost airport in Norway, with the North Sea to the west, fjords and mountains to the east, and the beautiful North Sea coast to the north and south. It is a 20 minute walk to the city center, or five minutes by cab. Florø was founded in 1860 and will celebrate 150 years in 2010.

Beware of strong wind along the coast, including the airport. Remember to check METAR and TAF before departure. Also note that as since october 1. 2009 the airport do not have 100LL fuel. You may get 100LL from the local flying club at ENBL (Førde, Bringeland) 23nm to the ESE. The tower at ENBL will help you get in touch with the club.
