perfect, so we do actually agree that normal access keys should be used. Incidentally I believe this will also greatly help routing software which should understand access keys anyways. I am not doing this to help routing software but to do the "right thing" - orthogonalize tagging by reusing already well established keys and apply them to aerialways instead of reinventing endless variations of them. As of "usage=*", I think it can be still used in addition to access keys where it makes sense. The railways also have railway:traffic_mode=passenger/mixed/freight which might also be interesting to ship, aerialways and similar if it wasn't for the "railway:" prefix.
