"International"? edit

How can it be an International Airport when it only flies to Johannesburg? Bezuidenhout (talk) 14:22, 8 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

It is an international airport because it has customs and immigration service. Don't look only at scheduled airline services. At smaller airports such as this unscheduled charter operators, private and corporate aviation plays a much bigger role than at airports such as ORT which only serves sheduled airlines.

Polokwane not Pietersburg edit

Polokwane International Airport FAPP is not the same as Pietersburg Civil Aerodrome FAPI. The first has coordinates 23°50′43″S 29°27′31″E / 23.84528°S 29.45861°E / -23.84528; 29.45861. The second has coordinates 23°55′33″S 29°29′03″E / 23.92583°S 29.48417°E / -23.92583; 29.48417. You can see the different airports on satellite imagery. cagliost (talk) 06:43, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

I have removed the unsourced claim "formerly known as Pietersburg International Airport or Gateway International Airport".

FAPB edit

There are mentions of ICAO code FAPB on the internet. This is no longer an official ICAO code, however it was used for this location (FAPP) in the past, see [1]. cagliost (talk) 09:54, 12 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
