I was trying to add the Angola airport in Luanda (4 de Fevereiro - LAD - FNLU) and the system said it is already in the database. Does anyone know how can I find it?

It is not under Africa under the letter L, Q (for 'Quatro de Fevereiro') nor A (for Angola).

Thank you!

You may find airports via the "Rent Gate" page. In the field "Show data by" you need to select "Search". Then enter the three letter code of the airport you are looking for.

Oh I see, thank you guys! In the research page it is coming up under "Aeroporto 4 de Fevereiro". There is no reference to Angola or Luanda so it was hard to find :roll:

Most names come from the GCM.

As you can see there the airport name is "Aeroporto 4 de Fevereiro". Although I do know from an Irish perspective it can be horribly wrong, if the propper name is different we would be happy to update it.

It is the proper Portuguese spelling and all, just hard to find. Since it is the Angolan capital airport, perhaps it would be good if it could be changed to "Luanda - 4 de Fevereiro" to make it easier for people to find on the list :) Or, of course, if we could have a "by country" filter. Just an idea  :D

Thank you!

Oh, but we do have a filter by country.  :)

When you go to the Rent-a-Gate page there is a drop-down list box that allows you to search by country. That's how I found LDA.


BTW and off-topic: I only landed once in Luanda... before it was called 4 de Fevereiro.
