<div id="ygrps-yiv-1017656781">This one is pretty close.  I drove past this one on the way to ME-NB-<br/>
QC.  It looks like you might easily cross into Canadian airspace on <br/>
takeoff with winds from the east.<br/>

&gt; Do you remember the name of that particular airport?  Scobey <br/>
Airport <br/>
&gt; (Scobey, MT) or Piney Pinecreek Border Airport (Pinecreek, MN) come <br/>
to mind <br/>
&gt; as likely candidates.  I believe the Scobey runway parallels the <br/>
border <br/>
&gt; (within a literal stone&#39;s throw) and the runway at Pinecreek <br/>
actually <br/>
&gt; extends into Canada.  Other airports that come very close to being <br/>
&gt; international airports (other than in name only) are Houlton <br/>
Municipal <br/>
&gt; (Houlton, ME), and of course, Douglas Municipal (Douglas, AZ).  If <br/>
memory <br/>
&gt; serves me correctly, the Nogales airport is about seven miles north <br/>
of the <br/>
&gt; Mexican border..is has its own fun side though...like having to <br/>
avoid a <br/>
&gt; mountain in the dark while in the traffic pattern!<br/>

&gt; &gt;Bill, I&#39;m not aware of any other such arrows on the border.  This <br/>
trail of <br/>
&gt; &gt;them might be a place-specific arrangement.  Does anyone know of <br/>
any other <br/>
&gt; &gt;such arrows for pilots on any borders?<br/>
