{{main|Delfino Airstrip Dilemma}}
====Delfino Airstrip Dilemma====
Delfino Airstrip is the first area encountered in ''[[Super Mario Sunshine]]'', and is the place where [[F.L.U.D.D.|FLUDD]] is encountered as well as where the first [[Shine Sprite]] is encountered. It cannot be revisited until after the player gains access to [[Corona Mountain]]. After entering the mountain (it is not necessary to complete it; the player may simply pause the game and select "Exit Area" to leave), the player can pay ten [[coin]]s to a [[Pianta]] at [[Delfino Plaza]] to ride a boat to the airstrip.

{{Sunshine episodes table
The [[Toad Express|plane]] [[Mario]], [[Princess Peach]], [[Toadsworth]], and the [[Toad (species)|Toads]] were flying in comes to a screeching halt once it arrives at the airstrip. Leaving the plane, the characters find [[Graffiti|goop]] in the shape of Mario's face. Toadsworth will tell Mario to find some assistance as Peach notices [[Shadow Mario]] nearby. Finding [[F.L.U.D.D.]] on the opposite end of the airstrip, the player has to defeat the [[Polluted Piranha]] in the center by spraying it when its mouth is open. Spraying it three times will defeat it, revealing the [[Shine Sprite]] and returning the airstrip to normal. Afterwards, Mario will be taken to a trial, with the [[Pianta]]s blaming Mario for vandalizing their island.

}}
After opening up [[Corona Mountain]] and paying a Pianta in Delfino Plaza ten [[coin]]s to return to the airstrip, the player can do a [[Red Coin]] challenge. By [[Ground Pound]]ing a [[Red Coin Switch]] and using the [[Turbo Nozzle]], the player has to collect the eight Red Coins both on and around the airstrip. Collecting them all within the time limit will reward the player with the Shine Sprite.


====Nozzles====
===''Super Smash Bros. Brawl''===
*'''[[Turbo Nozzle]]'''
Delfino Airstrip only makes a small cameo in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' in the background of the [[Delfino Plaza (stage)|Delfino Plaza]] stage. The airstrip's model seems to be largely simplified from its appearance in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', in that it simply looks like a floating block in the ocean.
**On the northwest edge of the airstrip, right of the Hover Nozzle. It does not appear during the first visit.

===''Super Smash Bros.'' series===
==Nozzle locations==
Delfino Airstrip only makes a small background appearance in the ''[[Super Smash Bros. (series)|Super Smash Bros. series]]'' in the [[Delfino Plaza (stage)|Delfino Plaza]] stage, which appears in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'', ''[[Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]'' and ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]''. The airstrip's model seems to be largely simplified from its appearance in ''Super Mario Sunshine'', in that it simply looks like a floating block in the ocean.
[[Nozzle Box|Nozzle Boxes]] appear during Mario's second visit. The Rocket Nozzle does not appear anywhere on the airstrip, although if desired, the player is able to take any nozzle from Delfino Plaza to the Airstrip, allowing them to use the Rocket Nozzle there.

*On the northwest edge of the airstrip. Left of the Turbo Nozzle.
The "Delfino Airstrip" theme is an elongated arrangement of the "[[Underground Theme]]" from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' played on strings and piano backed by tropical percussion. When the player returns to the airstrip, "[[Isle Delfino (theme)|Isle Delfino]]" plays instead.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*After completing the game and going back to the airstrip, the [[Guide Book]] will erroneously display Mario's location as being in Delfino Plaza. The airstrip is considered a submap of the plaza because its 100 Coin Shine is also the same as the 100-Coin Shine for Delfino Plaza. The [[Blue Coin]] on the airstrip is also counted as part of Delfino Plaza's Blue Coin count.

*Through an elaborate glitch, it is possible for Mario to have the Turbo Nozzle when playing Delfino Airstrip for the first time. If he attempts to bust down the wooden doors this way, the game crashes.<ref>"{{cite|url=www.youtube.com/watch?v=4dkCgQxVpxw|title=Breaking a Door Crashes Super Mario Sunshine|author=BeaverThingify|publisher=YouTube|date=May 14, 2017|accessdate=July 11, 2023}}</ref>
*The music heard the first time the player is in the airstrip is a remix of the original 'Underground BGM' music from ''[[Super Mario Bros.]]'' When the player returns to the airstrip, the Delfino Plaza music plays instead.
