[Talk-us] [Tagging] Aeroway=Aerodrome Modifier Tags?

[Zeke Farwell]

Thanks for the link, Dave.  I've though about similar classification schemes
to what's listed there.  Something like this in decreasing importance:
aerodrome = international
aerodrome = regional
aerodrome = local
The problem I see with this terminology is that it's more subjective, and
it's harder to define based on physical characteristics.  A very small
airfield may in fact classified as an international airport because it
receives the occasional international flight.  This doesn't mean it has the
same level of importance as Heathrow in london or JFK in the US.
