How to change ICAO code of airport

Question

I'm in the process of building some small danish GA airfields in WED, and noticed that the ICAO code i X-Plane isn't correct/complete for many of the small fields. I.E. there is Goerlev Airfield with ICAO EK23 in XPlane, but EKGO in the real world.

How can i rectify that so other users see the true ICAO code?

Answer 1

Please file a bug report here on the Airport Scenery Gateway.  Select the best option from the drop down list and complete as many of the fields as possible.

You can also help populate missing airports by filing a request to add them. Then if you want to get even more involved, you can create and add scenery for them. Learn about getting started with airports on the Gateway, or on the scenery development page here.

Thanks for your quick reply.

If I change the ICAO identifier in WED, both the old and the new one is vissible in XPlane. Will the old one be removed from XPlane automatically once the modified airport is pushed out with an XP update, or will it have to be removed manually? And if so, how do I do that?

Thanks.

Right now, it will only be excluded if you have an exclusion zone in your highest priority pack. Once version 10.45 is final, we will be able to exclude airports by ICAO.
