Placencia Municipal Airport, Belize. By Alf B. Meier.
Placencia Municipal Airport Scenery.
Introduction:
Even in the anarchic application of international conventions in Belize, this airport is one of the minority that do not have an IATA nor ICAO registration, despite being serviced by several daily flights.
This airport is on the Placencia peninsula surrounded by mangrove swamps and has been refurbished in the last few years, where the landing strip was enlarged (from about 300 yards to over 500) and some of the bushes and trees in the landing path have been removed. A dam was placed over one of the swamps to give a safety corridor in case of a botched landing. That does not mean that it would be wise to get off the landing strip and/or dam, because there are still swamps at either side of it.And one should constantly remember that both dam and landing strip are only 12 yards wide.
MZ56 is a designator I have given this airstrip because one cannot have unassigned airports in FSX.
