more waypoints please
Like the smell of good barbecue that is known to waft over Kansas City? Then set a couse
for Kansas City International Airport’s Runway 1R and line up on SPICY BARBQ TERKY
SMOKE RIBBS.
Flying into Key West Florida? Watch out for the waypoint intersection named DROWN.
While many find Copenhagen to be a lovely city, others may think differently, as a final
waypoint into their International Airport is known as ITSUX.
Green Bay, Wisconsin, isn’t exactly known for its warm weather and has named approach
waypoint accordingly. Aircraft follow FRZZN and TNDRA into Austin Straubel International
Airport’s Runway 6.
Portland International Airport’s Runway 10L takes pilots down TRAYL BLAZR.
If you are a fan of Charlie Brown, and really who isn’t, fly out of Charles Schultz Sonoma
County Airport and let SNUPY guide your way out into the wild blue yonder.
The Irish love their Guinness Beer and for those headed to Dublin Airport over the Irish Sea
GINIS will take you where you’re headed.
… and we’ll finish it up with the home airport to the most recognizable aircraft in the world,
Air Force One. The line up for Andrews Air Force Base’s Runway 19R is DUBYA, BUUSH,
FORRD, RREGN.
Next time you think government agencies around the world that oversee the aviation
industry have no sense of humor … think again.
