Not really.
The downtown Airport codes are SKMD/EOH and the Airport where the B747 ran off is SKRG/MDE. The downtown Airport used to have the MDE code until the Rionegro Airport was built, then the Rionegro took MDE and the downtown became EOH.
RNG is the VOR code though, 115.10 RNG (there's another one 111.8 CDV, CDV of "Córdova", as the Airport name is "José María Córdova").

I'm the person who took the pictures at Jetphotos. I have more at MyAviation (search under "Andrés Ramírez", or under the Airport or Aircraft) and just took more today of the process of scrap as of today Jun 30th, will upload them soon.
