A node isn't necessary, it's duplicating all the information on the way: http://www.openstreetmap.org/way/55204821

The node is necessary because without it a navigating system tries to navigate to the airport centroid which is between two runways and says 'Route not found'.Would the node better be labeled "Albany International Airport car entrance" ?? The node has to be an airport to search properly as a point of interest.

Hm, perhaps a navigation system should try to navigate to the terminal buildings and not the centroid of the whole airport. I'm not sure what the best approach is for mapping entrances to large facilities to help with routing.
While it helps solve a routing issue, having multiple aeroway=aerodrome objects for the same airport causes problems in several other areas such as search, data management, data analysis, and rendering.

I think it would be possible to add 'entrance=yes' or 'entrance=main' to the node. Would this be an improvement?
