Renaming to 'Eisenhuettenstadt ' was declined from the Moderator. At least skyvector labeled it 'Eisenhuttenstadt' . The real name is: 'Eisenhüttenstadt-Frankfurth(Oder)'

In German documents i found mostly 'Eisenhüttenstadt'.

What do you suggest ?

    Julian,
    Can you explain your thoughts on the name issue in a bit more detail?

    Hi Jennifer

    I looked up the name and SkyVector returned it as follows:

    https://skyvector.com/airport/EDAE/Eisenhuttenstadt-Airport

    Looks like SkyVector has it wrong though, because the correct spelling seems to be either of the following:

    'Eisenhuettenstadt (with an "e" at position 8)
    or
    Eisenhüttenstadt (with a "ü" at position 7)

    I will re-check and approve the airport today.

    JL
