re: No cardone airport

Reply to @choppergb: Before I make any changes, I'd like to confirm. Should this airport be merged with Vedia Aeroclub?

If so, which of the two locations is correct? Thanks.

No cardone airport

This is Vedia Aeroclub, in the MADHEL (Manual de aeropuertos y helipuertos) there isn´t CARDONE airport, but in the madhel mark a wrong lat and log vedia aeroclub.

re: A little more south

Reply to @choppergb: There is already an airport marked at that location. It's called "Cardone Airport".

re: Runway closed?

The airport was closed beginning 2006. Several country clubs will be builded in the 80 hectareas that were occupied by the airport. The first builded in 22 hectareas is named "Lagos del Norte".

re: Another duplicate heliport?

Agreed -- I've merged them.

Another duplicate heliport?

Another case of a heliport exactly coincident with an airport (SA04).

Runway closed?

The only apparent runway in the satellite image has "X"s. I wonder if the whole airport is closed?

re: Dup?

Thanks, Paul. I've merged them, and moved the marker to what looks like a (n overgrown?) runway.

re: Is this really a separate facility?

I've merged them, since the heliport doesn't have a separate ICAO or IATA code. I haven't yet made a final decision about what to do when a single facility has multiple codes (e.g. military and civilian, or fixed-wing and heliport). I'll definitely keep seaplane docks separate.

Is this really a separate facility?

Are the heliport and the airport (SAVJ) really considered separate facilities?

Dup?

There appears to be two Loncopue airports, about a mile apart. The other one (SA18) is in my DAFIF data. Not sure which one is right.
