Map of airports. There are a lot more airports around me than I realized. You might find there are a lot more around you, too. The map can show heliports as well. And seaplane bases as well, though there aren't any of those around me (I'm in Colorado). You can also have it show military bases.

For regular airports, you can filter by whether the airport is public or private. There are a lot of private airports.

The map layers FAA visual flight rules (VFR) sectional charts onto the map as well.

The site is called "Pirep", though I don't know where the name "Pirep" comes from. It's basically an open-source database of airports that any pilot can contribute to.

"Pirep is my love letter to our aviation infrastructure. When I first started flying I had no idea about where to find transient parking, pilot lounges, or fuel pumps, if an airport had crew cars/bikes, or really any of the unpublished, local knowledge that only came from walking around an airport."

"As I slowly expanded my personal knowledge base of information I realized how valuable it could be to others and how valuable their knowledge bases would be to me. I created Pirep for pilots to contribute to a shared source of the unpublished information about airports and to hopefully discover new destinations & adventures."
