Talk:Bossembélé Airport

Two Airports with this code?
The official IATA code directory says BEM is assigned to Beni Mellal Airport in Morocco. It's likely that the airport is in fact gone, as noted below. --129.119.235.22 (talk) 05:25, 8 November 2016 (UTC)

Airport likely gone
Airport likely does not exist anymore. Both OpenMaps and Cloudmade maps (url unavailable, sorry) depict the airstrip running NW/SE, about 300 meters west of the intersection of highways RN1 and RN3, center coordinates of 5°16'1.90"N 17°38'45.49"E. Both Google Earth/Google Maps and OVI satellite photos show a treeline now on that location, running the same direction as the maps' runway. http://maps.google.com/?ll=5.26709,17.64547&spn=0.087947,0.093813&t=h&z=14 Bossembélé Airport page and entry on the List of airports in the Central African Republic page should be removed.
