Data Quality

[digimen-ch]

On the route BCN / ZRH is Airline ID 2439 Formosa Airlines IATA VY. That's wrong. Correct would by ID 5352 Vueling Airlines. I guess someone messed up the data because both Airlines have the same IATA Code VY. But Formusa Arilines ceased operations 1999. In the file airlines.dat it's still active = Y. As well not correct.

So I checked other IATA codes who are double in airlines.dat and found Maxair (IATA 8M), Ceased operations 2005 but still acitve = Y in the data. It looks like the quality isn't that good... :(

Bumping this. Any plans to merge open PRs like #1038, to fix data quality issues in this extremely useful repository, @jpatokal?
