  • If concernedAirportHeliport is used, then:
    • if the associated AirportHeliport has an assigned value for its locationIndicatorICAO, this one is used in item A
    • otherwise, if AirportHeliport.locationIndicatorICAO is empty, then CXXX or CCXX shall be used, where C/CC are the country code. In this case, the AirportHeliport.name shall be added at the beginning of item E (see OPADD 2.3.14). Note that this element does not appear in the item E generation pattern diagrams of the various scenario.
