Motivation edit
Recent discussion at w:wt:WikiProject Airports#Navigation aids: noteworthy?, noticed this was apparently missing from WikiData. The full database of NDB beacon codes is public (see source in request). The property could be added to w:Template:Infobox airport, together with similar properties already there (FAA, LID, GPS, etc.) Formatting is slightly different from VOR/DME beacons, as there are cases with just one letter instead of 2 or 3. — JFG talk 22:45, 23 August 2018 (UTC)
