Please note that this was compiled to the best of my abilities and cross-checked; however, it was difficult as often some sources say there is no IATA code and other sources do list the IATA code. I was thinking if it would make sense to review the PR before merging it @mwgg @Jmion
Further remarks
I left out the US airports which have no IATA code but an FAA LID (cf. wikipedia.org/wiki/Location_identifier
We could consider adding a regional_airport_identifier which would allow us to keep the ICAO and IATA codes clean while providing a fallback with a designated but not standardized identifier
@mwgg let me know what you think or if I should raise a dedicated issue regarding that as I saw it has been coming up quite a lot during the past PRs from others.
