### 1/5 — Only the big airports

*2025-07-25, version 3.0.2*

This app doesn’t have the small airports in it that US private pilot might use. Why? It should be easy to load them too.

### 2/5 — Not all listed airports

*2025-06-07, version 3.0.2*

Great for major airports but many smaller airports are not listed.

### 4/5 — Good quick reference for Airport codes

*2024-10-04, version 3.0.2*

I use it for just a quick reference.  Every now and then I’ll find an outdated or missing code.  For example Kuwait, OKBK vs OKKK.

### 1/5 — No updates

*2024-02-06, version 3.0.2*

The last for this app was 3 years ago and a lot of airport codes have changed. They need to support the app with updates from time to time, until then it gets 1 star.

### 4/5 — UigGf I’mm hur us us

*2023-07-18, version 3.0.2*

I’mq I’llymm m mummmm m yu

### 3/5 — Gut aber ausbaufähig

*2023-06-23, version 3.0.2*

Schön übersichtlich und simpel gehalten. Find ich gut. Aber es fehlen einige Codes. Es müsste die Funktion geben, diese manuell einzutragen und abzuspeichern!!!

### 5/5 — User friendly

*2023-01-04, version 3.0.2*

So handy

### 1/5 — No data about airport

*2021-09-18*

the search bar will give result of the airport with airport code and city. Can't click on this airport to get data. app is therefore useless. can't get the country, runway length, altitude, direction, timezone.. nothing!!

### 5/5 — AN  ABSOLUTELY  INDISPENSABLE  TOOL      🇺🇸💫__°j°__💫🇺🇸

*2020-12-03, version 3.0*

The title is self explanatory ❗️
Many thanks to y'all for 
maintaining same‼️

### 2/5 — Could be Better

*2020-10-19, version 3.0*

While this app does as advertised, it could offer more like other similar apps.  For one thing, you cannot search by country.  Once it finds the airport it offers no other information about the airport like runway lengths, distance from nearest large city, etc
