Ahh... it's nice to be back on the list.

 From the archives I see there are some new faces. Let me re-introduce 
my self. I'm user bcrosby and started mapping the town of Aurora, 
Ontario back in 2008.

I've been busy since then with another project called World Flight 
Planner (www.worldflightplanner.com) which allows pilots to plan their 
flights.

I'm going to incorporate some airport information from OSM into my 
application. In the mean time, I'm also going to improve Airport data 
quality in OSM. If nobody has any objections, I would like to put some 
tagging guidelines in the Canadian Tagging Guideline Wiki Page 
(http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Canadian_tagging_guidelines) for 
airport specific information.

I will be sure to keep them aligned with the guidelines found at 
http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Airport .

I'm then going to start adding or improving the airport information in 
Ontario. Then work my way to other provinces.

Let me know if you have any questions :)

Blake
