[40AR] "Heads Up" by flymab

Sun, 21 Aug 2011 03:48:30 -0400

Comment by @flymab on Lost Bridge Village Airport, United States:

Some pointers:

Watch out for the trees on both sides of the runway as they are not far from the edge (~10-20ft)

Must land on RNWY 31 and take off 13.

Don't try to out climb the hill at the "departure" end of RNWY 31 as you will fail

Please keep in mind of the houses around the runway.

RNWY 31 in up hill which in turn makes RNWY 13 down hill. this is very helpful for braking on landing and accelerating on takeoff

Call before arriving 479-359-3204

Above all. Enjoy the view of Beaver Lake on approach and after Take-off

This airport just won a lengthy court battle to stay open, but there are some restrictions on takeoffs and landings. See http://www.aviationcadet.com/SWFrestrictions.html for details.

[KHRO] "KHRO" by Anonymous Flier

Comment by an Anonymous Flier on Boone County Airport, United States:

Very nice runway. 18/36 150' wide in excellent condition. Nice FBO and fuel is reasonable but can be found cheaper at 4M1 at any time. Fuel is 24hr self serve at both places. Crew cars available as well as hotels and decent places to eat. For short stays, the FBO offers hangared storage for a reasonable fee ($25/night I think is what I paid). FBO has nice pilot lounge with recliners and internet access. Newly remodeled and includes a single pilot sleep area!

Comment by @ptomblin on Arkansas Heart Hospital Heliport, United States:

And the FAA replies:

We received the information to change the lat/long from GCR thru a XML

report.

Per telephone conversation with Joyce, GCR, she advised me to change the

lat/long back to what was previously published in NASR. See NFDD 015 dated

1/26/09.

For some reason, the FAA has this heliport miles away in Lowell Kansas! I'll write to them.

Comment by @david on Newport Municipal Airport, United States:

There's a little hamlet in Illinois called "Grubbs" -- is that what you mean? If so, it looks like the closest airport is Pinckneyville Du Quoin:
