There are free airport lists that are much more complete. Also, two columns (lon, lat) for points would be better, as it's much easier to transform "lon, lat" into "POINT(lon lat)" than otherwise.

And, yeah, although I don't really care for licenses usually, here it makes me feel uneasy.

Thank you!

What makes you feel uneasy about the license? We'll love to fix this!

Regarding the airport lists, we're definitely open to merging in more complete and accurate data.
