Famous place! Posted by on January 29, 2015

It's here the missed Malaysian Flight MH370 pilot was heading!
He trained the landing here many times on his own home flight simulators: www dailymail co uk news article-2584123
Probably the jet crushed (or was shoot down by AAD - they did the right thing: I cannot blame them after September 11th!) before reaching it.

Any private jets you see there are most likely an aeromedical flight flying a patient out.

re: naval family Posted by on September 18, 2013

Are private jets allowed to land there?
