ICAO - Airport Classification
The ICAO uses a two element references code to
classify the geometric design standards for airports.
The code element consists of a numeric and
alphabetic designation.
The code number 1 through 4 classify the length of
the runway available and the code letters A
through E classify the wingspan and outer main
gear wheel span for the aircraft for which the airport

designed.
