LETISKO TRENCIN sa nachadza na juhozapadnom okraji mesta, na lavej strane Vahu v blizkosti mestskych casti Trencianske Biskupice a Nozdrkovce, pricom zasahuje aj do katastrov obci Velke Bierovce a Opatovce. Lezi vo vzdialenosti 3,5 km od Trencianskeho hradu pod azimutom 235 stupnov, v nadmorskej vyske 206 metrov nad morom.
*** Vseobecne informacie:
Budovanie letiska sa zacalo v roku 1936 v suvislosti s vystavbou arealu vojenskej opravarensko-zasobovacej zakladne a leteckej skoly. Cinnost opravarenskych dielni a skladov prerastla po II.svetovej vojne do vzniku podniku ministerstva obrany - Letecke opravovne Trencin su dodnes prevadzkovatelom letiska.
Vyznamnym krokom k rozsireniu prevadzkoveho vyuzitia bolo vybudovanie betonovej drahy v roku 1987. V nasledujucom obdobi po politickom prevrate sa povodne iba vojenske letisko postupne spristupnilo aj pre civilnu prevadzku. V jeho areali okrem opravovni posobia aj vrtulnikova zachranna zdravotna sluzba (Kristof 07), aeroklub (motorove a bezmotorove lietanie), letecke skoly pilotaze, viacere spolocnosti a organizacie zaoberajuce sa vyhliadkovymi letmi, parasutizmom, balonovym lietanim, modelarstvom a pod. K dispozicii je aj ubytovanie.
Letisko je aj miestom konania roznych podujati pre verejnost. Napriklad v oktobri 1994 a v maji 1998 sa tu uskutocnili atraktivne exhibicne Letecke dni, pocas augusta 1998 sa tu konali Majstrovstva sveta v leteckej akrobacii (trencianska akrobaticka skupina dlhe roky patrila k europskej spicke), priestor tu nasli aj automobilove a motocyklove preteky. Od roku 2004 vzdy v juli patri areal hudobnemu festivalu Pohoda.

*** KESKA ***
Finalne suradnice kesky mozete najst s pomocou tych lietajucich objektov, ktore JE mozne uvidiet aj na trencianskom letisku (samozrejme, nemusi to byt presne tento konkretny objekt zobrazeny na fotke... v pripade potreby si mozete obrazky rozkliknut na vacsie rozmery); kedze spravni letci musia vediet aj dobre navigovat, prezradime uz len, ze N sa zacina 48 a E sa zacina 01...
ENGLISH:
TRENCIN AIRPORT is located on the southwestern outskirts of the town, on the left side of the Vah river nearby the town districts of Trencianske Biskupice and Nozdrkovce, covers part of the neighbour villages of Velke Bierovce and Opatovce. It lies at the distance of 3.5 km from Trencin Castle under azimuth of 235 degrees, at an altitude of 206 meters above sea level.
*** General informations:
Building of the airport began in 1936 in connection with the construction of the military repair and supply base and of the flight school. The activities of repair workshops and warehouses outgrown after the WWII to formation of the company by Ministry of Defence - Letecke opravovne Trencin (Aircraft Repairs) are still the airport operator.
Significant step towards enhancing an airport use was building of a runway with concrete surface in 1987. In the following period after the political upheaval, originally only military airport was gradually also made available for civilian traffic. Besides the repair company, more companies are operating in the airport area - Helicopter Emergency Medical Service, aeroclub (motorized flying and gliding), flight schools of piloting, a number of companies and organizations dealing the sightseeing flights, skydiving, balloon flying, models flying etc. There is also accommodation available.
The airport is also the venue for various events for the public. For example, in October 1994 and in May 1998 the air shows took place here, during August 1998 the World Aerobatics Championships were held in the airport (the local aerobatic group was one of the top in Europe for many years), car and motorcycle races were and still are organized here. Since 2004 always in July, the areal is the host of the Pohoda (relax, ease) music festival.

*** THE CACHE ***
You can find the final coordinates of the cache with the help of the flying objects that you can also see at Trencin airport (of course, it may not be exactly a particular object shown in the picture...); because the good pilots also must to navigate well, we can just reveal that N starts with 48 and E starts with 01...
