I can find no information that the airport has permanently closed, though it hasn't had any new flights in a month according the FlightAware. Leaving as open for now, pending more information.

Ismailia Air Base Duplicate airport

The airport has two GPS codes, here it has this code (HE44) and at another site it has this code (HEIS) although the other site use OurAirports data, this is causing a problem of appearing two airports at the same location. Also, the airport has a METAR system that is not appearing in the weather reports.

Updated to use the ICAO code HEIS. Thank you for the report.

Capital International Airport Duplicate airport

The airport has two GPS codes (HECP) & (HE13) which making it appears on other services maps which using OurAirports data as two separate airports. Also, the same problem exists on the search bar of OurAirports site, (two different GPS codes reach the same page).

resolved 2020-09-06 08:40:12 2020-09-07 16:46:27

Thanks for the report. Those sites should not be using the ident field, which is the OurAirports internal identifier, but I've updated it to match the ICAO to avoid any further confusion.
