[neuvocat]

air traffic controllers.

There's a pretty good comedienne on Comedy Central right now. Tune in if you can.

1. Real irony though is when a Republican tells the truth

It's against everything they stand for

[Kellanved]

2. Or: naming an airport after a pilot who died after a crash

The Airport Berlin-Tegel "Otto Lilienthal"´.

[Breezy du Nord]

3. I saw her too!

She was pretty good. She was talking about a program she saw on curing people of homosexuality.

"So, I thought, can consueling make you straight? Well... I don't know... money can make you Republican...."

4. Worst Name for an Airport

"Pueblo Memorial Airport", Pueblo CO.

Do you want to take off or land at a memorial airport????

[KCDem]

5. worst acronym: SUX

Sioux City, IA's airport.

Sucks, huh? ;)

8. My favorite: CZI...Crazy Woman, Wyoming Vortac

I have NO idea why that one hasn't been changed for PC reasons.

(Hint to pilots...if you're flying out west, make CZI part of your flight plan. I know a lot of controllers (myself included) who always clear pilots direct to CZI just because it's fun to say "Cleared direct Crazy Woman").

6. No big deal, we just call it "National"...NOBODY ever says "Reagan"

7. even further irony-

an aircraft carrier too.
Isn't it the first one named after a living(albeit barely) "person"?
