SPX: Do you include my favorite airport?
Category: SimPlates


Question / Issue:
Do you include my favorite airport?

Solution:
We include every airport that we can get from legal sources--there is never any hand picking of "we'll take this airport, but not that one." If some airports are not included, it is often because the data is not available publicly from a provider that allows the republishing. We wish we could include your airport - we really do!

Often, the problem lies with individual countries' aviation authorities who, in our opinion, treat plates and aviation safety data as if it were some big secret. Whatever you think of the USA politically or otherwise, the fact is that the US government typically makes more plates freely available for many foreign countries than those countries do for themselves! At the other end of the spectrum, even small countries like Libya and Moldova publish their data in a reasonable format.
