The coordinates in place for LBL/KLBL (Liberal, Kansas, USA) are incorrect, they are placing the airport somewhere in Indonesia.

The coordinates are correct. It is just that the external mapper that we use (great circle mapper) recognizes LBL as an Indonesian airport.

Could these airports be made a special case so that it doesn't try to get GCM to display these? This would avoid the whole problem.

The Wiki also knows

My search-fu is weak.  ;)

GCMapper recognizes KLBL properly... perhaps use ICAO airport codes instead of IATA/FAA codes for GCMapping?
