List of airports in Wisconsin

Do you have a newer data source for enplanements than 2018? AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 01:05, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

I have enplanements for 2020. I'm assuming you'd like me to update the data; I'll see if I can get a start later this afternoon. Hope you had a good Christmas and New Year. --KDTW Flyer (talk) 14:02, 2 January 2022 (UTC)
 Done! --KDTW Flyer (talk) 23:43, 2 January 2022 (UTC)

Midway International Airport request

Hello. I was the guy asking you to source my additions with Aviation Safety Network in the past. Hope all is good with you. Go to Midway International Airport infobox, go to Reference #3. I can't make it go to the December 2021 PDF no matter what I did. I typed the URL correctly but to no avail. I went to the Wikipedia:Teahouse but no one is responding to my request. Hope you can fix this. Thank you and have a good weekend.Theairportman33531 (talk) 12:55, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Hey hope you're doing well as well; I'm doing great! I will have a look at that reference for you right away. --KDTW Flyer (talk) 14:36, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! I have gotten good at sourcing now (especially with Aviation Safety Network), but once in a while I hit a stumbling block. Thanks for your time.Theairportman33531 (talk) 15:05, 18 March 2022 (UTC)

Southern Airways Corporation

Could you build a new brief page for 'Southern Airways Corporation'? It is the holding company parent of the three airlines: Southern Airways Express, Mokulele Airlines and Air Choice One. It is based in Palm Beach Florida with Stan Little as the Chairman/CEO. You could use the Southern Airways Express fleet chart template and merely add a line for the (2) B1900 aircraft flown by Air Choice One and then increase total C208s to (48) when adding all three airlines ownership, ie 30/11/7 Thank You AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 12:30, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

@AirOpsExecnPlt: I'll have to see what I can do, looks like there's enough information to make a long enough page. Hope your doing well, been super busy on my end.--KDTW Flyer (talk) 19:25, 6 May 2022 (UTC)

KAUW airport

Could you add a reference and undelete the FBO information added recently for the AUW airport page? I just retired from FedEx Express in KIND and will move my winter home near RHI. Summers and winters in Wisconsin, hope my quality humble college roommate and I will purchase one or two FBOs at KRHI and/or KAUW soon. AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 20:28, 5 August 2022 (UTC) See flywausau.com AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 20:30, 5 August 2022 (UTC)

Sure I'll have a look into the FBO information you mention. I wish you luck with your next adventure in owning an FBO and welcome to Wisconsin!--KDTW Flyer (talk) 02:53, 8 August 2022 (UTC)
Thanks! meeting with FBO and my high income college roommate 8/16 ..... AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 21:04, 13 August 2022 (UTC)

KAUW page

Hello again, could you add a 'FAA airport diagram' for the KAUW page similar to the KRHI page? Perhaps, update the KRHI airport diagram while you are there. Thanks, and Enjoy Wisconsin. AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 14:20, 26 October 2022 (UTC)

 Partly done I've updated the source file for the KRHI airport diagram, it might take up to a day for it to sync over to the page. Do you have a particular chart you'd like to use for the KAUW page, I don't think the FAA has one for this field and that's the only open-source product I can think of for airport charts in US? Thanks!, --KDTW Flyer (talk) 18:32, 1 November 2022 (UTC)
please use the 'RNAV (GPS) Rwy 31' chart for KAUW. Great work for KRHI. AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 16:58, 9 November 2022 (UTC)

Can you use ..... https://aeronav.faa.gov/d-tpp/2211/00874R31.PDF  ? AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 17:34, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Sure, that is good to be used, I'll see about converting the PDF to SVG and getting it added to the article as soon as possible. Sorry about the delay; busy times lately getting things finished up at work before the Thanksgiving holiday.--KDTW Flyer (talk) 20:03, 18 November 2022 (UTC)

Thanks — Preceding unsigned comment added by AirOpsExecnPlt (talkcontribs) 21:14, 18 November, 2022 (UTC)

 Done! The chart has been added feel free to make changes caption or positioning within the article as you see fit. Happy Thanksgiving! --KDTW Flyer (talk) 03:13, 20 November 2022 (UTC)
Thanks, my friend. Looking for a Lake aircraft, likely the shorter LA4/200 versus the Renegade model, for the spring. I hope to give you a scenic ride around KATW in 2023. and Merry Christ mas! AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 19:56, 20 November 2022 (UTC)

Air Wisconsin

Within the Air Wisconsin page, can you clean up the fleet chart by centering most data values? Glad you are with Gulfstream as AW needs time to work out their niche in an over priced pilot world. Yes, higher wages are deserved, but those same wages will expedite the change over to single-pilot or eventually ground-pilot programs. Enjoy the G650ER! AirOpsExecnPlt (talk) 18:00, 23 December 2022 (UTC)

@AirOpsExecnPlt Yes I'll take a look at the Air Wisconsin chart. My internet is currently down and only access has been with my phone since Wednesday. Hopefully my provider will get fixed tomorrow. I am definitely enjoying the G650ERs next year we should start seeing G700s in the completions center. Hope your having a great Christmas! -KDTW Flyer (talk) 18:41, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
