Sir Barry Bowen Belize Municipal Airport?

dook 8th Apr 2018 10:34

Good morning HH.

I am unable to find that airport by name.

However, an old retired ATC colleague says it is RAF Belize.

I therefore graciously hand you control.

Heathrow Harry 8th Apr 2018 10:43

Is it the same one? If so a complete punt and Open House.......


Sir Barry Bowen Municipal Airport (formerly Belize City Municipal Airport) (IATA: TZA) is an airport that serves Belize City, Belize. It is only one mile from the city center, and is therefore more centrally located to the city than is Belize City International Airport. It mostly services travel to Belize's cayes, allowing quicker arrivals to the cayes than by boat or water taxi. The airport is named after the Belizean politician and entrepreneur Barry Bowen.
In 2012, a project to upgrade and modernize the airport was initiated.[2] Improvements included extending the runway, constructing a new access road, adding a taxiway, and installing a new lighting system. The project was completed in November 2016 at a total cost of BZ$17 million.[3]
The head office of Maya Island Air is on the second floor of Building #1.[4] Tropic Air also has a terminal at this airport with multiple flights every day.

I believe the name is now Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport.

My erstwhile ex-colleague also says it was the site of Butcher Radar.

Heathrow Harry 8th Apr 2018 16:54

They are two seperate airports I believe - the International (ex RAF) one is slightly inland about 15 miles NW of the City - the Domestic ariport is in the sea on the beach in the city area...

But the towers look very similar...

So I was close but wrong...

dook 9th Apr 2018 09:56

I see no image, just a dial and information that the poster's third party imaging has been disabled.

nvubu 9th Apr 2018 12:24

I could see the image this morning at home, cant see it at work or on my phone though.


Photobucket :eek:

India Four Two 9th Apr 2018 14:30

I’ve noticed that when a new Photobucket link is posted on PPRuNe, the picture is available for a while and then disappears, presumable when Photobucket’s server notices the third-party link.

grizzled,
Try using imgur.com.

Here is the challenge again.

Thanks India Four Two for the help and suggestion.

And thanks dook for re-posting

grizzled 9th Apr 2018 14:49

Harry, not Europe

dook 9th Apr 2018 14:52

USA maybe.

grizzled 9th Apr 2018 14:58

Nope, but closer to the USA than Europe...

grizzled 9th Apr 2018 15:24

If this view from downwind doesn`t do the trick within a day or so I`ll post a photo taken airside...
