Goose Bay WAS NOT NOT NOT NOT NOT part of the "lend-lease" agreement.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.197.82.203 ( talk • contribs) 2006-08-17
DND has closed this airport. Right? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Apassley ( talk • contribs) 00:52, 22 February 2007 (UTC).
Formerly geared to support allied military flying training, 5 Wing is evolving to meet the challenges of the 21st century. 5 Wing staff are actively working to enhance the training opportunities at Goose Bay and market our facilities to national and international clients.
This article has now twice had text inserted indicating that it is an alternate landing site for the Space shuttle and twice I have removed it. Global Security has a list of Space Shuttle landing sites and none of them are in Canada. If someone has a better ref that shows that Goose is indeed a Space Shuttle landing site then let's by all means put the information and that reference back in. Until someone can show a ref that says it is true I consider it an Urban legend and it doesn't belong in an encyclopedia
Well...
The city of Happy Valley makes that claim on their website: http://www.happyvalley-goosebay.com/home/5_wing_goose_bay.htm — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.72.207.88 ( talk) 22:30, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
This page says that he traveled from Canada, but says he was in Goose Bay, nor says landed there first:
There is also no mention about being "the first time the U.S. space shuttle landed outside of your country."
I did not find anything talking about the Enterprise landings in Goose Bay, I guess it never occurred.
And the image of the landing has no source and required to be removed from the Commons.
If anyone know any reliable page, please insert the text. Thank you.

I just get off a plane ( DL-209) which made an emergency landing at Goose Bay. It was a widebody aircraft (Boeging 767-300ER), and therefore hosted more than 200 passangers. We've been cleared through customs after some delay, so the article's statement about not being able to handle larger airliners might need fixing. I'm not familiar with wp's policies and I feel that I'd have to provide a source for such a statement, so I wonder what's the best way to proceed now?

The runway surfaces are composed of Asphalt concrete. The material underneath—by definition—is not the "surface". 142.109.149.199 ( talk) 20:29, 5 September 2019 (UTC)
