Great. So MLenoch didn't say "DIA is the airport identifier for Denver."
Then who did?



Who said that anyone said "DIA is the airport identifier for Denver."?

Yes. Were you trying to make a point?

I asked whether someone said that DIA is the airport identifier for
Denver.
You said yes. Now, again (can't be that hard, surely?)


One wouldn't think so, but it certainly does seem to give you a lot of
trouble.



- who did?


Again, MLenoch wrote "DIA = Denver International Airport".

Again, MLenoch wrote "DIA = Denver International Airport".



And again, KDIA does not exist.
But KDEN = Denver International Airport,
but also commonly known as DIA ( in non-pilot parlance, often for those that
are street wise).

No, not anymore. If you review the thread you'll see it was I that pointed
that out.

Do you have a reference to an ICAO source for this? Thx.

An ICAO source for what?

Actually, in the thread people were describing DIA as indicating Denver
International Airport, which is an abbreviation based on the first letter of
each word. Not all abreviations need to have the blessing of ICAO, IATA, or
FAA. Harrisburg International Airport is routinely described as HIA, even by
its management and advertising http://flyhia.com even though its official
identifier is MDT or KMDT.

By the way, airlines and IATA use SCE as their identifier for KUNV.
University Park Airport, State College, Pennsylvania

SCE was a grass field where the airlines had DC-3 service years ago. It is
long closed.

For that matter the same is true for KORD. Old Orchard Airport does not exist
anymore as it has been replaced and built over by O'Hare.

But, Where would I find KDIA in my INS or GPS or Lockheed Flight planner? That
is where one needs the source code from ICAO to load one's destination airport
for navigation. Do you have an ICAO source for KDIA? Thx.
