Re: PVG
Multiple airports can have the same three-letter code in *different* organization systems. Yes, PVG is the IATA code for Shanghai Pudong, but PVG is also the FAA LID for Hampton Roads. Note that Shanghai Pudong won't *have* an FAA LID because that is only for airports within the United States.
Obviously the ICAO codes (ZSPD and KPVG) are therefore quite different.
THIS IS NOT THE REAL PVG
pvg-->ZSPD--> airport in shanghai, china
Misplaced all along.
The FAA had this misplaced the whole time.
This Airport no longer exists
The Motel and airport was sold a year or two ago and has been removed and replaced with a Travel Trailer sales display space. So Airport no longer exists.

Waiting for me!!!
Sad that this is now slated to be closed soon!
Sad that this is now slated to be closed! I visited 11-19-21 so I could have it in my logbook before it's gone...
Name of Airport
Maybe someday it will be the βSaint George-Southwest Utah International Airportβ but currently it is the St George Regional Airport
Nice airport
Fuel pump card control wasn't working but friendly local helped out.
Really nice airport for a municipal airport
Stopped in to drop off a passenger. Friendly attendant and wasn't too scary to fuel up
If it did exist, it wasn't here.
FAA is notoriously bad at plotting correct lat/longs of heliports. This probably did exist somewhere within a 5 mile radius of this spot. AirNav doesn't list RI14 anymore at any rate.

The runways are actually 01-19.
no after hours restrooms
doors lock at 5
Nice little airport
Just dropped in to meet someone with tractor parts for me to take home for some friends.
Nice Runways for a small place
Stopped in for Fuel after picking up some parts for a tractor across the lake.
Currently known as Moonbow...
Closed
Airnav and FAA now list this as CLOSED INDEFINITELY so there we go.

Hurricane Ida!
Great airport. My first visit was to drop supplies for victims of Hurricane Ida. The place looked like a war zone, in part because an army search/rescue unit was staging from there. Hope to be back when they've built back!
Nice Older Airport
3 runways 2 grass 1 cement look to be in good shape. Went down to work on an irrigation engine. Was a sign on nice big hanger βfor sale or rentβ I would love to have it at home.
Nice Airport, Clean newer FBO
Always fun to add a new airport. Flew in for a family reunion. Was met by family but do have curtesy car.
My Home Field
Earned all my ratings here...from PVT up through CFI-IA. Great facilities, 2 flight schools on the field, maintenance is top-notch, Garmin dealer, and plenty of hangar space (not cheap, but not overly out of line for the area). AIrport has been in operation since the 1920s, and has a good working relationship with the town after many years of issues during the 1980s...could stand as an example of how to go along to get along in the most densely populated state in the US.
Amazing approach
Incredible views coming and out of this airport. Very tight canyon
Great gas stop
Nice airport with reasonable Alaskan gas prices

They give out loan to genuine minded people that are interested at 2% rate. They are extremely efficient. They can increase your score and clean your report in somedays too as they did for me. They give solutions to all credit issues. Contact if you interested @ PERMANENTCREDITREPAIRER AT GMAIL DOT COM
Crazy indeed!
You'd have to be crazy to land here! Fun to fly by though!
Never ending sunset
I landed here at 2am on 7/30 after landing at Deadhorse around midnight. Night may not be the right word since it was basically a 4 hour long sunset/rise. Absolutely incredible
Elevation: ZERO!
Great airport with helpful service, chilled FBO, and cheap gas. But I came here for the selfie with the airport sign showing "Elevation: 0.0"!
First gravel strip
Landed here in a bonanza v35. Amazing park and service in McCarthy. Runway was fine and we had a great time exploring the glacier
Friendly line service
Stopped here for gas on my way to norther AK. Staff came out to pump my gas and even gave us two homemade cookies!
Great Service
Stopped to see 90 year old aunt. Flew her around Albany.
Update
I've given this a provisional name based on the location, but I've come up with the same problem as @im -- not mapped, no data available. More research needed.
Crowded airport
I have been to the San Diego airport several times to drop my mom it is a very crowded airport but still the management here works very fast we didn't have to stand in line for a long time.

Landed in SR22T G6
Very bumpy surface, Iβd say its βiffyβ for a Cirrus with wheel pants. Incredible spot, short walk to wonderful beach, tie downs and picnic tables on site. Need to sign a waiver and agreement with the operator before landing.
FAA oddity - a CA coded airport in Nevada
Per Airnav:
Sectional chart: (AIRPORT IS 10 MILES INTO NEVADA. THE CLOSEST ASSC CITY IS BISHOP, CA - AND IS CORRECTLY CHARTED ON SAN FRANCISCO SECTIONAL.)
Since it's not actually in California, I have corrected the data to reflect that it is indeed closer to Dyer, Nevada.
Army National Guard Helicopter LZ
Used for landings in support of frequent Texas ANG helicopter operations at this lake.

Hello! How to download these georeferenced satellite images?
Corrected.
It only took a decade ... but yeah, we're all good here now.
Good gas stop
Must have been an old military base. Massive runway. ForeFlight said fair condition but I would say it was good
Great restaurant!
Stopped to meet my brother and sister-in-law. The restaurant gave us a bowl of water for our dogs. Very friendly

My instructor pointed out this field a while ago, and every time I fly above it - it does look like an airport. I tried simulated engine failure to approach in this airfield but it's pretty steep on one end and very close to Livermore on the other. Not sure if this is a private field or maybe it never went into operation. Could not find any information about it either
good gas stop
TWO avgas pumps!!
Great gas stop!
Loved stopping here for gas, classic small town airport
Smooth landing
This airport had one of the smoothest runways Iβve landed on!
Not Functional
The aiport is no longer functional. It's been converted to a flea market and landing there would be virtually impossible.
Nice place to go
I am here for a few days to finish up my private certificate. Will probably consider coming back to get commercial and IFR.
Update
Signed as closed and for sale. Gliderport field is overgrown and now dotted with bushes. Checked in-person 15 May 2021.
Repurposing duplicate
Reusing Snyder Airport duplicate to cover nearby hospital heliport.
Independent Helicopters (76NY) now under KSWF airspace
new site added Jun2020
Beutiful New Airport BUT
Not maned no office no bathroom beware

I'd always wanted to ride in a helicopter, so my wife bought me a ride on one -- I actually got to control it for a few minutes.
