Philipp Ringler reported issue XSG-6546: Vandel MIL needs to be removed on December 1, 2018 1:51 AM
Closed

The closed Vandel [MIL] at Vandel, South Denmark airport needs to have the ICAO ID EKVA removed, because it hogs this ID and prevents the EK49 scenery from using it:

Full error message of X-Plane 11.30 debug:
I cannot insert the airport Varde at Varde, ?, ICAO ID EKVA, local ID ? and scenery pack ID EK49 because we already have airport [X] Vandel [MIL] at Vandel, South Denmark with ICAO EKVA

The airport has been closed for a while and is nowadays a solar power plant, not a useable runway structure anymore.

    Please file a new airport code request - with the ICAO button set to 'No'.

    No new airport code needs to be requested. The Vandel MIL airport just needs the ICAO field emptied in WED. No need for @Julian to do anything.

    Actually, I'd say we can convert this into a REMOVAL request. The Vandel MIL airport is nowadays a solar power plant - you can still see where the runway used to be, but there are no useable structures anymore. So completely removing Vandel MIL would also be an acceptable solution.

    Yup - EKVA deprecated !

    yes it is requred as EKVA is official used by varde today: http://vestjydskflyveklub.dk/da/wp-content/uploads/2016/07/EKVA-19-1.pdf
