WSSS as the world “best” airport? Clearly these critics have never been or seen KRHV Reid Hillview. Hopefully if they see this, it’ll convince them that no other airport compares to RHV.
Just look at these rotting planes! How old and fragile they appear! So beautiful 😍. The visitors even get a great view of them, since they’re forced to taxi by the boneyard to get to transient parking. That’s obviously, the best way to welcome visitors to your airport!
Oh, and the weeds. Can’t leave those out! Reid Hillview is known to locals as Weed Hillview, as the weeds in some locations can get up to your waist. But if you ever spill something on your pants and need to wipe them off, running through the weeds in between 31R and 31L should dry it off. Very convienent and saves paper, since Reid Hillview is known for being very earth friendly!
The airport even waters the dirt in front of the terminal, in attempt to bring grass out of the ground. Although seeds have never been planted, maybe if the airport gets lucky something other than a weed will grow. This will help make the airport look even more beautiful than it already is! This photo was taken back in summer of 2015, when California was in the worst of the drought. Being the amazing airport that it is, they were smart enough to shut off the water for the wash rack, not only so they could do their part in the drought, but also so that they could tick off a few pilots who wanted to wash their planes, only to find out the water was shut off! Those silly pilots, should’ve known before they burned fuel and taxied over to the washrack! But in an attempt to make the airport look better watering the dirt is clearly a better use of water in the midst of a drought, since this is the world’s best airport!
To add onto all those amazing features of the airport, we are known to have the best sunsets in the world! In no other airport in the world, will you get a sunset like the one featured below.
Please make sure you file a flight plan, a direct one is okay as we are planning to have all frequencies open, but ground may not clear you for taxi before you have a flight plan
****Final Disclaimer: these are just plans we are trying to follow, they may change based on traffic and many other factors, as always please follow instructions :).
All aircraft on Expert Server: at WSSS and WMKK we are requiring a flightplan before pushback. Anyone without a flightplan filed will not be allowed to push back.
Please remember no pattern work and to expect delays as the region is already very busy (especially on approach into WMKK)
I’d also like to give a shoutout to the controllers. Brilliant service. Names that spring to mind are @dush19, @Adrien, @MannyG and @IFATC-Tim. Thanks guys!
