          Public FAA API gateway. Verified reachable anonymously 2026-07-28. Prefer this
          host; external.apic4e.faa.gov is the same Gravitee gateway under its internal
          naming and is listed first in the FAA document.

    update:
      x-apievangelist-cache: >-
        Service responds Cache-Control "max-age=0, no-cache, no-store" and Pragma
        no-cache. The delay feed is explicitly uncacheable; poll, do not cache.
      x-apievangelist-upstream: >-
        Backed by fly.faa.gov. A 404 or 500 here is an upstream NAS status failure, not a
        client error. Fall back to https://nasstatus.faa.gov/.

    update:
      x-apievangelist-note: >-
        The airportCode path parameter accepts either an IATA three-letter code (JFK) or
        an ICAO four-letter code (KJFK); the response returns both. Coverage is limited to
        the ~40 airports enumerated in the operation description — anything else is a 404,
        not an error.
