Talking OT- Well, I'll be damned....

Believe it or not, there is an airport named after me. It's CKX and it's a dirt strip in the Upper Yukon Valley of Alaska. Here's a photo from the FAA's Alaska Airports website!

Ahhh...was waiting to see if anyone would ever bring CKX up for you Chicken. You pass over Chicken when flying from Fairbanks to Dawson on Air North. I guess that would be the Sentinel Chicken route?

So is it just a coincedence that it is located next to Mosquito Fork Creek? Looking for a bit of infestation and disease?

Actually, the mosquitos up there are the size of Chickens. Look's like the Doc is going to pull the "Northern Exposure" thing.

Impressive airport... Looks like a safe bet there won't be too many A380s landing there.

This sounds like the sort of airport that would be near Possum Lake on the "Red Green Show!"
