Looking for help finding your DZ! Not USA.

To me the most valuable thing now is simply the ICAO of your DZ airport.

In that case... (Down Under...)

Cessnock YCNK
Corowa YCOR
Latrobe Valley YLTV
Mangalore YMNG (well, sometimes, but if you make it there, you'll see the sign pointing to Nagambie 10 mins away... whose code I couldn't find
Coffs Harbour YSCH
Nowra YSNW
Temora YTEM
Port Macquarie YPMQ
Caloundra YCDR
Coolangatta YBCG
Goolwa YGWA
Murray Bridge YMBD
Darwin YPDN

Disclaimer: definitely non-exhaustive, may be out of date and may include tandem factories.

nothing to see here

I've been hunting around, and I don't believe Picton, Toogoolawah, or Nagambie have ICAO codes.

I'll be at Picton this weekend, and I'll see if I can get the GPS co-ords from Phil Onis or one of the pilots.

I think you're right about Nagambie and Toogoolawah. No ICAO, but here are the coordinates:

Quote

(ICAO: n/a) NAGAMBIE

NAGAMBIE, VICTORIA AUSTRALIA

Latitude: 36° 47' South Longitude: 145° 10' East

Approximate Elevation: 430' (131m) Max. Runway Length: not available

Quote

(ICAO: n/a) TOOGOOLAWAH

TOOGOOLAWAH, QUEENSLAND AUSTRALIA

Latitude: 27° 5' South Longitude: 152° 23' East

Approximate Elevation: 686' (209m) Max. Runway Length: not available

Have not found Picton yet...

Hope this helps,

Be careful giving advice. Wise men don't need it, and fools won't heed it.

Some of us already stated the data. Sorry Sangiro I dont know the lattitude o ' " -thingies, but the ICAOs start EF (civil aviation adminstration can help you with all of them; http://www.ilmailulaitos.fi/home ) and the map of Finnish dropzones you find here; http://www.ilmailuliitto.fi/laskuvarjo/kerhot/
Most of the dz´s are small, and cosy but all of them friendly.
