It appears the name of the city for KBP IATA code in the openflights database is not correct. The major maps (openstreetmap, mapbox, googlemaps) have Kyiv on it, but some wikipedia pages still have "Kiev" spelling (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boryspil_International_Airport, though - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiev).
Please take into account the next reference: https://www.kyivpost.com/world/kyiv-not-kiev-us-changes-spelling-of-ukrainian-capital.html
I would like to have the only spelling. I believe Kyiv is the correct one.
