Airport location

edit

Wiki listed coords 15°27′6.9″S 65°40′54.5″W are supported by only two sources, GCM and Landings. Coords 15°22'60S 65°45'0W are supported by OurAirports, FallingRain, ASN, and WAC.

However, the town of San Lorenzo is 18 km and 28 km respectively away from those coords. There is a 1440 metre grass runway in the town (15°32'50"S 65°32'54"W ) that is supported by OpenStreetMaps. This is very likely the airport, as the other two locations are distant and do not have any road connections with the town. Cptmrmcmillan (talk) 07:41, 8 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

This YouTube video shows a takeoff from San Lorenzo. The bare patch and background trees match the runway at the village, but match neither of the other locations. Cptmrmcmillan (talk) 01:20, 18 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
