Well, maybe there is someone who thinks mapping runway as area is wrong? I
think that both way and area are OK, because the way element matches the
way we map taxiways. So it is useful when others need to guide their plane
using osm data(maybe in flight simulator softwares). Mapping as area can
show the width of the runway and thus is more realistic. The best method
should be using both elements. Just like highway objects. Obviously, the
wikipage needs some edit or restoration.


Map the runways and taxiways as linear (who knows, someone might want to
have a routable model for flight simulators or similar games), and map the
negative space (grass infields, etc) as areas?
