Drugs etc

Agree with Gulio I guess. If we are going to discuss details of drug smuggling here (which, by my reading of what was written, suggest involvement by Mr Mansfield), then we could have vast tracts of such material in relation to Heathrow, Dublin Airport etc. Dangerous territory for Wiki and unfair on Weston Airport.

Has this airport recently received an IATA code? I ask because I noticed on Flightradar it had "QIW" listed as a code. It's listed on here but not anywhere else that I can see. Strange. — ser! (chat to me - see my edits) 12:35, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I doubt it. IATA typically assigns airport codes only where the location is served by a commercial airline or if it is part of an intermodal journey. Weston isn't served by a commercial airline or ticketing carrier. If Flightradar has assigned it "QIW", then it could be for Flightradar's own internal/system/database reasons.
