On the other hand, if most people feel that it isn't necessary (you can change airports by using Position Aircraft (on ground) after all) then the select from list option should probably be removed.
I think the goal of having a list of airports, is to provide a way for the casual user to search for 'Common Airport Name' to find the Airport ID.
Loading the airport should be as simple as sending the ID to the subroutine for Position Aircraft.
Just because we can 'less' or view the apt.dat.gz file, doesn't make the list unnecessary, keeping in mind the potential Target Audience.
