    The World's 18 Strangest Airports

    New list from Popular Mechanics listing 18 airports that with bizarre designs or built in odd locations. Not the first list like this, of course, and a few of the usual suspects are on it, but there are some interesting ones in there too...

    They included one in the French Alps which is pretty much the same thing. :-)
