ICAO CODE is LICK
Intersting Landing
This is a nice small airport with an interesting final approach and landing due to limited runway length.
Overview
Grass runway
Grass taxiway on RW 27 end leading to a concrete pad
Two hangars. Bigger one available for renting space.
Covered resting area.
Sad
The runway is in excelent condition. It has an upslope north to south.
The airport looks rather abandoned, with most of the buildings looking like they are falling apart and broken windows. Could be such a nice place.
Information
Altough the runway is in good condition, the weeds can be quite rough and tall, due to the restrictions they have in cutting the weeds due to the airfield being inside a natural reserve.
Well run and spacious airport
We landed here from Newark NY USA (KEWR) on United AL. Customs was friendly and easy. Take the rental car bus from terminal to the rental car lots. Don't walk or follow signs. Get off at one of five stops, depending on your reservation. Be ready for a long list of expensive car insurance choices.
Not operational
It's still there with lots of construction equipment on the west end. Apparently it's not operational since 2011. No aircraft seeable.
Beautiful scenery
The aerodrome is abandoned, but the runway is still in excelent condition.
It has an upslope west to east.
Expensive
Landing fees are around โฌ12,50 per ton.
However, there is a nice restaurant within walking distance from the airfield.
Very narrow
The dirt runway has become unusable.
On the east there is quite a big hill, so a straight in is difficult.
The runway is rather narrow, with trees and bushes not far from the runway edge.
Obstacle Course
The runway has a huge upslope east to west. The west end of the runway is full of antennas with supporting wires reaching all the way to the runway edge. On the aproach end it is full of windmills so a continuous turn from base to the treshold has to be made.
cool
it ok!!

Runway is now fully covered with tarp, and in very good condition.
In spite of the obstacles on both ends, it is not a difficult runway.
It's gone!
This plot of land now has some greenhouses and the airstrip is gone.

Please remove that keyword.
Thanks!

I landed there a few years ago but nowadays it is harder to spot the southeast limit and you really have to use it if you want to stop before the first road crossing because the ground is a bit uneven there.
Good condition
The trees feel a bit too close if you're doing a low pass but at landing speeds, coming in from East, it's perfectly safe.
Weeds
High weeds but smooth surface below. Beautiful area.
Russian invasion
ยซRussiaโs military claimed Friday afternoon that its forces had staged a โsuccessful landing operationโ to capture Hostomel airfield on Kyivโs outskirts, viewed as strategically important.ยป

ยซFootage posted online purported to show the tail end of a missile strike on the Russian military's airbase around 10am local time (8am GMT) with several buildings on the site engulfed in flames.ยป

Herdade do Pontal is a private runway with very little activity. It has more or less 8 ultralights based there.
The runway is in very good condition. There are obstacles on both ends of the runway, but the runway is long enough so is not a factor.
The beginning of the runway has a downslope, transitioning into an upslope.
(no subject)
3% upslope on runway 11. High trees on the final approach. With only 260m of runway it can be challenging.
You can spend the night there

I had an early flight and slept inside the airport. Besides the restaurant, which is close during the night, you can sleep there in a comfortable way. You can get to the airport from downtown Gdansk for about 1 euro (4.8 sloti). I The journey takes about 40 minutes. The bus is number 210.
