Thanks for these. Weirdly I couldn't find any sort of code for Batoka Airport, despite being able to find at least SOME sort of code for even the most remote and tiny airstrips elsewhere.

I also decided to add connecting airports. I added Riga, Doha and Papeete, but those are the only ones I know of off the top of my head.

The former Mariscal Sucre International Airport was closed when the new airport was opened in 2013, therefore that airport was used in TAR LatAm 6.

First task of TAR Latam 6 was on the decommissioned runway of the old airport, and teams traveled by train out of Quito not by plane. The new airport has only appeared on TAR Israel 8.

Too bad we couldn't add Tonga to that list. That would've been neat.
