    Description

    Approach
    Powers State Airport is a very easy and safe introduction to maneuvering in a valley below ridgetop level. The valley is very wide, but you get the sensation of having to maneuver as if you are in a tighter canyon like Johnson Creek. Preferred runway is 31, with left traffic pattern. Watch out for the sinking air just over the river before the cliff-threshold on rwy 31. 

    Runway
    The strip itself sits right on the Coquille River, and although it is listed as 60 feet wide in the database, that is merely the width of the mowed runway in a very large field, so it feel very wide.

     

    Camping
    There are 2 mowed camping areas on the NE side of the runway. Sometimes portable toilets are there, sometimes not. Please sign the pilot register at the NW end of the field, as the state uses these to determine usage.The trail to the river has become overgrown. About midfield there is a dirt road down to the river. There is an opening off to the left of this road that you can use to bushwack to the river. Better river access may possibly be had at the north end of the runway, but please obey private property signs.

    Services:
    It's a short walk into town where you'll find Jack's Diner and a nice market/deli. 

    Powers does not have fuel.

    • Dangerous Gibraltar Airport | British Airways @ Gibraltar | 4K

      Dangerous Gibraltar Airport | British Airways @ Gibraltar | 4K

      Gibraltar Airport is listed as one of the most dangerous airports in the World. Not at least because of it's only 1777m long runway, but also because of the 4-lane Winston Churchill Avenue, which is crossing the runway. This is very unique. My 4K Video shows Airbus A320 jets of British Airways with flights from and to London at the Airport including a 'nice' crosswind approach. Captured on 09.04.2016.

      Gibraltar is a British Overseas Territory located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula.It has an area of 6.7 km2 (2.6 sq mi) and is bordered to the north by Spain. The landscape is dominated by the Rock of Gibraltar at the foot of which is a densely populated city area, home to over 30,000 people, primarily Gibraltarians.[10] It shares a maritime border with Morocco. Under the Gibraltar constitution of 2006, Gibraltar has limited powers of self-government, with some responsibilities, such as defence and foreign relations, remaining with the British government.

      In 1704, Anglo-Dutch forces captured Gibraltar from Spain during the War of the Spanish Succession on behalf of the Habsburg claim to the Spanish throne. The territory was ceded to Great Britain in perpetuity under the Treaty of Utrecht in 1713. During World War II it was an important base for the Royal Navy as it controlled the entrance and exit to the Mediterranean Sea, which is only 8 miles (13 km) wide at this naval "choke point". It remains strategically important, with half the world's seaborne trade passing through the strait. Today Gibraltar's economy is based largely on tourism, online gambling, financial services and cargo ship refuelling.

      The sovereignty of Gibraltar is a point of contention in Anglo-Spanish relations because Spain asserts a claim to the territory. Gibraltarians rejected proposals for Spanish sovereignty in a 1967 referendum and, in a 2002 referendum, the idea of shared sovereignty was also rejected.

      Der Flughafen von Gibraltar zählt zu den gefährlichsten Flughäfen der Welt. Nicht nur wegen seiner mit 1777m relativ kurzen Start- und Landebahn sondern auch, weil dieses Bahn von einer vierspurigen Hauptverkehrsstraße gekreuzt wird. Mein 4K-Video zeigt Airbus A320 der British Airways mit Flügen von und nach London, einschließlich eines Anflugs mit Seitenwind. Aufnahmen vom 09.04.2016. Gibraltar ist ein britisches Überseegebiet an der Südspitze der Iberischen Halbinsel. Es steht seit 1704 unter der Souveränität des Vereinigten Königreichs und wurde 1713 von Spanien offiziell im Frieden von Utrecht abgetreten, wird jedoch seitdem von Spanien beansprucht.

    • Narrated  - 1984 - Part 1

      Narrated - 1984 - Part 1

      Author George Orwell Genre:Dystopian, political fiction, social science fiction

      Set in London, Airstrip One, Oceania

      The story takes place in an imagined future, the year 1984, when much of the world has fallen victim to perpetual war, omnipresent government surveillance, historical negationism, and propaganda. Great Britain, known as Airstrip One, has become a province of a totalitarian superstate named Oceania that is ruled by the Party who employ the Thought Police to persecute individuality and independent thinking. Big Brother, the leader of the Party, enjoys an intense cult of personality despite the fact that he may not even exist. The protagonist, Winston Smith, is a diligent and skillful rank-and-file worker and Outer Party member who secretly hates the Party and dreams of rebellion. He enters into a forbidden relationship with a colleague, Julia, and starts to remember what life was like before the Party came to power.

      Main characters
      Winston Smith – the protagonist who is a phlegmatic everyman and is curious about the past before the Revolution.
      Julia – Winston's lover who is a covert "rebel from the waist downwards" who publicly espouses Party doctrine as a member of the fanatical Junior Anti-Sex League.
      O'Brien – a member of the Inner Party who poses as a member of The Brotherhood, the counter-revolutionary resistance, to deceive, trap, and capture Winston and Julia. O'Brien has a servant named Martin.
      Secondary characters
      Aaronson, Jones, and Rutherford – former members of the Inner Party whom Winston vaguely remembers as among the original leaders of the Revolution, long before he had heard of Big Brother. They confessed to treasonable conspiracies with foreign powers and were then executed in the political purges of the 1960s. In between their confessions and executions, Winston saw them drinking in the Chestnut Tree Café—with broken noses, suggesting that their confessions had been obtained by torture. Later, in the course of his editorial work, Winston sees newspaper evidence contradicting their confessions, but drops it into a memory hole.
      Ampleforth – Winston's one-time Records Department colleague who was imprisoned for leaving the word "God" in a Kipling poem as he could not find another rhyme for "rod";[26] Winston encounters him at the Miniluv. Ampleforth is a dreamer and intellectual who takes pleasure in his work, and respects poetry and language, traits which cause him disfavour with the Party.
      Charrington – an officer of the Thought Police posing as a sympathetic antiques dealer amongst the Proles.
      Katharine Smith – the emotionally indifferent wife whom Winston "can't get rid of". Despite disliking sexual intercourse, Katharine married Winston because it was their "duty to the Party". Although she was a "goodthinkful" ideologue, they separated because the couple could not conceive children. Divorce is not permitted, but couples who cannot have children may live separately. For much of the story Winston lives in vague hope that Katharine may die or could be "got rid of" so that he may marry Julia. He regrets not having killed her by pushing her over the edge of a quarry when he had the chance many years previously.
      Tom Parsons – Winston's naïve neighbour, and an ideal member of the Outer Party: an uneducated, suggestible man who is utterly loyal to the Party, and fully believes in its perfect image. He is socially active and participates in the Party activities for his social class. He is friendly towards Smith, and despite his political conformity punishes his bullying son for firing a catapult at Winston. Later, as a prisoner, Winston sees Parsons is in the Ministry of Love, as his daughter had reported him to the
      Thought Police, saying she heard him speak against Big Brother in his sleep. Even this does not dampen his belief in the Party, and he states he could do "good work" in the hard labour camps.
      Mrs. Parsons – Parsons's wife is a wan and hapless woman who is intimidated by her own children.
      The Parsons children – a nine-year-old son and seven-year-old daughter. Both are members of the Spies, a youth organization that focuses on indoctrinating children with Party ideals and training them to report any suspected incidents of unorthodoxy. They represent the new generation of Oceanian citizens, without memory of life before Big Brother, and without family ties or emotional sentiment; the model society envisioned by the Inner Party.
      Syme – Winston's colleague at the Ministry of Truth, a lexicographer involved in compiling a new edition of the Newspeak dictionary. Although he is enthusiastic about his work and support for the Party, Winston notes, "He is too intelligent. He sees too clearly and speaks too plainly." Winston predicts, correctly, that Syme will become an unperson.
      Additionally, the following characters, mentioned in the novel, play a significant role in the world-building of 1984.
