Hi Bill35! In the current iteration of the database: neither Crimea nor Sevastopol are selectable as independent entities or as subdivisions of Russia, only as subdivisions of Ukraine. The United Nations continues to consider Crimea and Sevastopol as Ukrainian territory occupied by Russia. There are instances where OurAirports diverges from strict UN interpretation (ie. Taiwan, Kosovo) and note that the islands of the southern Kuril chain are reckoned as strictly Russian and not Japanese (mirroring decades of de facto control), but for the most part, I believe this site adheres to UN and IATA policy.

I am too busy adding unlisted airports and heliports throughout the world to continue to deal with this regional spat. I have remanded this to the OurAirports administrator for an official decision. If he decides to add Crimea and Sevastopol as subdivisions of the Russian Republic, then that's up to him.

Please stop considering Crimea as part of Ukraine

The sooner everyone in good faith accept the reality, the better it will be for the aviation safety

Please stop moving this airport to Russia.

Unless and until the UN recognizes the occupation of the Crimean Peninsula by Russia, we should continue to list all airports in Crimea as being in Ukraine. There is no subdivision for Crimea or Sebastopol under the Russia heading. This is not the time or place for nationalistic sentiment -- this is simply abiding by the good-faith standards of database maintenance.

To be reopened by 2023

Remove old ESKS (strängnäs AB) as it is interfering with some programs using this database. Also this airport now has airliner service after a big expansion, ref wikipedia.

Re: Camí Heliport

— @animebirder at Terra Guindaldes Heliport, Andorra

This name was incorrect. Camí in Catalan means path, and therefore Camí Heliport is "Heliport Path", the name of the adjacent road. The correct name (Terra Guindaldes) has been applied to this heliport.

Reply to @DirkHaverals: Correction : the color of the icons switch also when a took a look again and I don't know why. Guess I am new here . . .

Sint-Truiden is a much bigger airfield than Goetsenhoven

— @DirkHaverals at Goetsenhoven Airfield, Belgium

The icons (purple and green plane on the map) of the airfields EBTN and EBST should be switched. EBTN (Goetsenhoven) is a small private airfield, EBST is much larger and has much more facilities.
