== Pseudo ICAO-codes == In small countries like Belgium or the Netherlands, almost all aerodromes have an ICAO code. For larger countries like the UK or Germany this is not feasible, given the limited number of letter codes. Some countries have addressed this issue by introducing a scheme of sub-ICAO aerodrome codes; France, for example, assigns pseudo ICAO codes in the style ''LFddnn'', where ''dd'' indicates the [[Departments of France|department]] while ''nn'' is a sequential counter. The French Federation of Ultralight Motorized Gliders was formally named the keeper of these codes. Aerodrome de Torreilles in France, for instance, has code LF6651.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://basulm.ffplum.info/index.php?option=com_content&view=featured&Itemid=39|title=Accueil|website=basulm.ffplum.info}}</ref> In [[List of airports in Antarctica|Antarctica many aerodromes]] have pseudo ICAO-codes with AT and two digits, while others have proper codes from countries performing air control such as NZ for [[New Zealand]].
