The original Coalinga Municipal Airport was about 0.5 mile (1 km) north of the town center, just north of Cambridge Avenue and west of East Elm Avenue. It opened sometime in the 1920s.[2] As of 2012 traces of it could still be seen on aerial photographs and satellite images. The New Coalinga Municipal Airport was built in the late 1990s east of the town center, with an entrance road from West Phelps Avenue.

Facilities

The airport covers 1,002 acres (405 ha) and has two runways (1/19: 2,500 x 60 ft (18 m), 12/30: 5,000 x 100 ft) and one helipad (H1: 50 x 50 ft). In the year ending May 9, 2003 the airport had 2,400 aircraft operations, all general aviation.[1]

gollark: Presumably the encoding pagers use is well-known/documented enough that someone implemented a software decoder.
gollark: That's an example of it, I guess? You turn... what is it again... 3 bits into 7 bits and can convert it back even if it's scrambled a bit.
gollark: I feed `multimon-ng` audio data from the `rtl_fm` program (which demoduldates FM from the RTL-SDR) and it decodes the POCSAG-whatever protocol(s) and outputs the text again.
gollark: "Encoding" is just converting the data into a different form in some way... in this case I guess the text on the pagers to POCSAG-something.
gollark: That's not what encoding means.
