Title: Airport Data Adjustment - Hollywood Burbank Airport (USA)
Post by: Aquantis on February 01, 2021, 01:15:38 pm
I'd like to make a suggestion for the beta with regards to a manual data adjustment for an airport. As it stands Burbank airport (legally Bob Hope airport, currently marketed as Hollywood Burbank Airport) only seems to have a relatively small capture area of around 280k citizens, but in real life the airport is situated in the San Fernando Valley which has a population of 1.8 million, while also serving as a domestic alternative to LAX for those who live north of downtown Los Angeles. It is also a significant regional hub for Southwest airlines, which transported 2.8 million passengers in 2019, while the airport as a whole saw 6 million passengers.
Some stats:

Edit: I realize I put this in the wrong forum, would you be able to move it?
