Came across this photo today and I said to myself, am I reading this correct? Is this city/airport really named Moron ?

It is pronounced "ma-RONE", according to an Argentinian coworker.

Ironically it's not the only airfield with that name. There is an AB in southern Spain with Sevilla called Moron AB :borat:

Everyone pronounces ISP outside of Long Island wrong. Most call it Is-lip. Forget of the mess they make to Ronkonkoma...
