XSG-1474

Obviously the identifier EDTK was reassigned. The former airport Karlsruhe Forchheim, which used to have that code, was demolished in 2000.

Hi Peter,

I see there is a grass field at the coordinates you provided. However, search results indicate that EDTK ICAO is still associated with the closed Karlsruhe Forchheim airport. Please Pick a fictitious ICAO based on the guidelines on the NOTAMs page.

Hi Jennifer,

I think that those results are outdated. I have gathered some sources which I think feature more recent data:

1) www.dfs-ais.de -> ICAO VFR map that can be viewed online after registration on that website. The attached picture shows a section of that map including the airport EDTK Sinsheim.

2) Skyvector.com -> https://skyvector.com/airport/EDTK/Sinsheim-Airport

3) openAIP -> http://www.openaip.net/node/153059

Further sources can be found if you search for EDTK+Sinsheim via Google. As a conclusion I am convinced that Sinsheim has the ICAO-code EDTK assigned. Do you agree?

Greetings Peter

I have to firmly side with Peter on this one. My research showed that both Karlsruhe-Forchheim was closed:

And it seems that EDTK was now re-assigned to Sinsheim:
