<p>Thanks Jo, that brought a smile!</p>
<p>The crux of the matter is of course that I can NOT fly into it,
it being so private as to be almost secretive. In fact I am
wondering more and more why these guys so vehemently refuse to
give this airstrip a name, it really feels like something is being
hushed up. Or then perhaps they wish to abide by the rules very
strictly, kind of "Befehl ist Befehl" :) Not the kind of
atmosphere I'll choose for a destination. And no, I'll not bother
to further improve our database in that area.<br>
</p>
<p>That I figured in WeeklyOSM is nice but perhaps my next
appearance could be more positive ;)</p>
<p>Smiling regards,</p>
<p>KA<br>

<div> I didn't look at the changeset. We have a description tag,
if it's a description and not a name. Of course if it's only
in English, maybe description:en?

<div>Anyway, you made it into WeeklyOSM.</div>

contact the owner of the airfield to find out how they name
it<br>
? Did you find a sign along the street pointing to the
airfield with a<br>
name ? Is there a name sign at the entrance ? Is there an
official<br>
document from a government which mentions a name ?<br>
<br>
If all of those questions return false, i.e. no name, then
the<br>
airfield has no name. Maybe there are a few other places
where we can<br>
look for the item of items, but making them up from ones
armchair is<br>
certainly not one of them.<br>
<br>
No everybody gives their house, private tennis court,
driveway or<br>
airfield a name. So noname=yes might be the only thing we
can do. We<br>
should not make up names as "Airfield of Family Anderson",
"Airfield<br>
near road N111" or whatever.<br>
