Khovaling Airport

This airport is missing from the maps now and has been added to Google Earth thanks to an Italian YouTuber called Dave Legenda who speaks Russian and landed at this airport with an Antonov 28 very rare plane I added the link here.... little information about this airport but if someone lands there he could describe the rest

Istanbul Airport Incorrect Continent

The continent for Istanbul Airport is listed as EU, should be AS. Found that in a JOIN SQL query when none of the airport data was coming up.

317457,LTFM,large_airport,"Δ°stanbul Airport" EU,Turkey,TR,"Δ°stanbul Province",TR-34,34,

Another consideration is to change all the letter " Δ° " to the standard letter " I ". Searching for this airport on a standard English keyboard does not find it. For my database application I just do a search and replace on all of them in the csv file. Simple solution.

re: change ICAO code prefix from UT to UZ from 2025-10-02

Reply to @espinielli: I will make sure to keep an eye out and change it all on Wikipedia once the new prefix is active in 3 days.

Remark

Originally, the Uttaradit Landing Ground served the Uttaradit province, located at 17Β°37β€²52β€³N 100Β°05β€²48β€³E. On 11 November, 1944, it had two runways, both overgrown and rendered unserviceable for aircraft use. Not much is known of the airfield’s history.

GYD-FZL

We landed there on 2021-09-27 (Reg: 4K-AZ64) coming from Baku (GYD) as a private charter. We're pretty sure the airport wasn't open at that time. The runway was ready, but all the facilities were still under construction. We had a limousine pickup directly at the aircraft.

CYPRUS is in the Wrong Continent

Not just this airport but since Cyprus is classed as Europe not Asia as the ICAo code are for the Europe region L. as in LC prefix

The error is probably in the Countries file used as it is listed as

302629,"CY","Cyprus","AS","

With the AS meaning Asia it should be EU for Europe

A little bit of history...

The Lhasa Airport is the airport serving the Tibetan capital of Lhasa, one of the highest places on Earth. In case of an emergency cause by freezing temperatures, high turbulence, mountains on the roof of the world creating dangerous emergency landings, and a lack of airports, the Tibet-Qinghai plateau is very dangerous to fly over, and trust me, even World War Two Allied pilots suffered a stretch over the Himalayas called the Hump. This is why in 1965, Lhasa Gonggar International Airport was founded, but it was originally a no-fly zone due to safety concerns. The year is 1965, and this is when the runway was built, and then a terminal. Immediately, domestic Chinese airlines began service in the airport. Then, a few restaurants and lounges opened. A second runway was built in 1994 due to safety concerns. In 2004, Terminal 2 was built, and in 2011, an expressway was finished. A decade later, in 2021, a third terminal was constructed to improve infrastructure and meet demands. Now, it on average gets five million passengers a year, and flies to China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Macau, Nepal, and Singapore, depending on the very few airlines stationed there. No airlines have hubs there but it is still an important landing spot during emergencies on the so-called roof of the world.

History

Abbas Ibn Firnas Airport was operational as a major passenger airport from 1945 until May 1981. It was opened in 1939 as a military airstrip. Through its operational years, it had 4 runways. It had two original runways, one E/W crosswind runway which was closed, and one runway which was requisitioned as a taxiway. Two new runways were built between 1970 and 1980. Today, not much remains of the airport.
