filter out airports that do not meet a defined criteria. This allows
you to only show airports with a surface type and sufficient runway
length you want. You can also select the

heliports in the Nearest Airport tab.

on the runway:
Any

water landing facilities.

—shows only runways with a concrete, asphalt, or
similar sealed surface.

for the shortest runway allowed.

many runway surfaces, you may not be alerted to a nearby
airport that otherwise would be listed.
