Welcome Zoufftgen!
As flying member of this airfield near Luxembourg, it had to be present on Ourairports.com !

Hi,
Since this is the only airport in this case, I suggesting creating 2 entries for this airport:
BSL/LSZM for the Swiss part
MLH/LFSB for the French part
or adding a field : "Other/Former codes" with a list of comma-separated other codes (currently sometimes in "Keywords")
re: Multiple IATA/ICAO codes
Reply to @dmomper: Right now, there's no capability, but I've added "LSZM" and the extra IATA codes to the keywords, so that they'll at least show up in searches.
re: new info
Reply to @Jan_Olieslagers: Updated the airport name and code, and added a link to the Wikipedia article.
The place to fly
Chambley is open to civil air trafic ultralight, planes, helicopters are welcome since 2010, AVGAS, JET A1, UL91 are avialable, a restaurant and a maintenance station for aircraft are on the field. there are no landing fees for the moment. Chambley is the location of the biggest hot air ballon meeting of the world : 456 ballons taking off in the same time in july 2017.

viva LFOK
LFOK is my favorite cargo airport at the time of our An-124 activity years .
OTAN
An-124 just arrived
for what purpose?
Multiple IATA/ICAO codes
According to Wikipedia (and verified in IATA code search) this airport has three active IATA codes: "BSL (Basel) is the Swiss code, MLH (Mulhouse) is the French code and EAP (EuroAirport) is the neutral code."
Is there a good way to store all three values in the IATA field? Maybe all three codes separated by delimiting characters something like "BSL/EAP/MLH"? Or must there only be one IATA code?
It also appears to have two ICAO codes: LFSB and LSZM.
new info
Previous comment seems no more valid: the field has now been assigned an ICAO code LFJY and is home to at least one aeroclub.

re: BA128
Reply to @david:
1. Metz Frescaty is LFSF. I'm not sure that it is closed. The air base is closed but I believe there are still flying clubs there.
2. Nancy Essey is not closed. It is fully active with a nice ILS approach: LFSN. Simply there is no more commercial liners.
I was stationed there
When Chambley AB was closed I was transfered to Etain. At that time it was the 388th TFW but became the 49th TFW. I served in Field mainteance, Engine Buildup as a SSGT. Left in 1959 when the base closed for the first time. W.R. Gardiner

re: BA128
Thank you. Here's what the Wikipedia article says about LFJL: "It opened to the public on October 28, 1991 and replaced Nancy-Essey and Metz-Frescaty airports."
I'd love to know the locations of the closed airports - we include those in OurAirports, too, with a red "X" icon.
BA128
Metz/Fresaty is closed.......
IATA-Code
Hi, please correct IATA-Code for Basel. It should be BSL not BAS.
re: LFSB RWY IDENT
Changed. Thank you very much for the update.
LFSB RWY IDENT
Pls change Runway-Idents from 16/34 to 15/33 (since several years changed!)
