Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File (DAFIF) is available in MI and AV format here: https://164.214.2.62/products/digitalaero/index.cfm Just look for the links to MIDAFIF or AVDAFIF. This is a regularly updated database for actual flight operations, so you will likely want to strip out most of the flight path information and just use the airport point locations you're interested in. Does include the Airport Code, and it's free. There's a government initiative underway to remove this data from the public domain, so get a copy now while it's still free.
Hope that helps, Jason _____________________ Jason Adam GIS Specialist De Beers Canada Inc, Exploration Division Toronto -----Original Message----- From: Warren Vick, Europa Technologies Ltd.

E.g. JFK, LAX. We have a airport data set for the world which contains a rich set of attributes including: Name Country Country codes (FIPS and ISO) IATA Code ICAO Code Elevation Ft Elevation M Type (Civil/Military/Both/Heliport/Seabase) Class (Scheduled international/national flights indicator) The last field is brand new and provides an excellent indicator of significance. Internally we have even more fields such as carrier counts, number of national/international flights, etc. These can be provided as a custom data supply but would be more expensive. Also new is a true type font with nice symbols for the airport types/classes. More details at http://www.europa-tech.com/gel.htm NOTE: the sample has not been updated to include the new field yet. Cost: US$895 for single user Please get in touch if this is of interest.
