Waypoints
& Database
Airport
Information
The internal database
uses ICAO identifiers
for all airport names.
All U. S. airports which
contain only letters use
the prefix 'K'. For
example, Los Angeles
International is KLAX
under the ICAO
standard.
Other airports, such as
Otten Memorial (3VS),
that contain numbers
in the identifier, do not
require the 'K' prefix.
Many countries outside
the U. S. use two letter
prefixes. For more
information, contact
the International Civil
Aviation Organization.
