Looks like I got my own airport now. I guess I'll have the Aarhus Airport, it's always good that have such things close to you.

Huzzah!  I knew you were close to the milestone, so let me congratulate you most heartily.   Aarhus Airport is in your grasp.

Morgan's made it into the Safe Zone, which may be a contradiction, since many of the posts come from participation in the Round 2 RPG, which is designed to send its crew out of the Safe Zone.  Huzzahs anyway!

Many hearty congratulations go out to Iceea, who with characteristic aplomb has captured for herself one slightly used but still serviceable airport!  Please let us know which airport has received the benefit of your expert rule.

I have been remiss - Kitty has accomplished the same feat, and largely for the same reason, just before Morgan.  My apologies, and congratulations!

Apparently I forgot to notify people which airport I conquered.

Charlotte-Douglass International.

That is all.

Oh my, 1000 posts already. it seems like only yesterday, but I guess it has been a while.
We are all time travelers.

I will claim Chippewa County International Airport. When I knew it as Kincheloe Air Base there were live SAC B-52s sitting at the end of the runway. Ready to rain Cold War death and destruction on the earth. At least we seem to have gotten past that. I hope.

Splendid!  I had to Google it, as 'County' and 'International' generally do not co-exist, but there it is.  Wonderful choice!
Sometimes I think we may indeed be getting beyond that - this week's developments in Korea make me hopeful.

Funny story, Look at Google maps, the view that shows the actual satellite picture. You'll see at the northwest end of the runway a bunch of what look like chevrons. Those were the places, the pads, where they parked the active SAC planes so they could just power up and they'd be at the end of the runway ready to take off. Well right above that you'll see a road coming in from an exit on the interstate. Looking to the East you'll see another road entering what was the base area. The eastern road had an official gate and a guard. You had to show you're ID and give a reason for entering the base. There was a fence all around the base. But the western entry point from the interstate had no gate, no guard, no nuthin'. Just a break in the fence and you were in and driving past the the active planes. You could tell when they were armed as there would be soldiers with guns patrolling below them. Truly high security ;D
It was a different world, a different time.

Ragnarok, good choice of airport!

Kitty, congratulations on becoming a safe-zone citizen.

Iceea, may you long enjoy your airport in peace and tranquility! And long may the machineries of war remain unneeded!
