    Actually FLU makes sense, especially for those nonstops from China.

    The A380 arrival will mark the grand re-opening of FLU airport. ;)

    OMG that was so wrong....and yet terribly funny.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    The flights from FLU are actually going to Japan, not China like some would expect. Also keep in mind that it's operatingwith AA's VTOL converted 772.

    I hear the A380s inboard-only thrust reversers were designed specifically for use on FLU's narrow runways.

    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.

    Since we've created a monster that ended up with its own thread, maybe we can also get the intersection of Main Street and Roosevelt Avenue designated as a Navaid.
