This is not a POV statement, I've clarified what I meant by this on the page. The center and airport both rank amongst the top ten in the nation, and have won several awards and distinctions both from governmental and academic agencies. It's a fact that is notable, and should be stated because it helps to fully explain why CMI is a different airport from most small airports of its size. Agriculture 08:40, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
[1] -> IATA's page for looking up airport codes. A search for KCMI returns no results, a search for CMI returns one result. As a note, my baggage from Europe was marked at CDG with "CMI" only and not KCMI, so User:Fawcett5's claim that KCMI is correct is disputed. Agriculture 08:44, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
I have removed the image posted by User:Fawcett5. This picture is from AirNav's page. AirNav is not a US Governmental Agency as was originally claimed by the creator of this image. AirNav is a Limited Liability Coorporation, incorporated in Morganville, New Jersey. As such it is quite possible that this image is copyright, and posting it to the Wikipedia is in direct violation of that copyright. I will obtain a picture myself and post it under the GFDL to correct this problem. Agriculture 08:58, 14 Feb 2005 (UTC)
As a pilot, I can assure Agriculture that the ICAO code is the prefered full identifier for an airport. It is true that I muddled the IATA and the ICAO. It is not true that ICAO codes simply indicate a weather station. Many airports without weather stations have ICAO identifiers. Also, I'm afraid to say that AirNav also took the public domain picture from a US DOT site - it is, after all in the public domain. The original can be found at: http://www.ama500.jccbi.gov/cmiatct/airports.htm, which I am restoring.
Though I'm not sure this information belongs in this article, I added corrections to the Air Force One incident. I'd also like to point out that the KCMI runway is 150 feet wide. This is the same width as the runways at KBOS Logan International Airport in Boston, which supports the Boeing 747. One of the runways at Andrews AFB is 150 ft wide, so I don't think the aircraft had a problem with the runway width. I also referenced the January 28, 1998 News Gazette story detailing the incident. It indicates the problem was with the taxiway and pilot error. -- Dual Freq 23:47, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
The domain of the official website has changed to iflycu.com, but two links in the reference section still point to non-existing pages under flycmi.com. We need to fix these two dead links. (And because they have HTTPS pages, we'd better link to pages under https://iflycu.com, not http://) -- UsagiNeko ( talk) 13:35, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
