Title: Most Extreme Airports - History Channel
Post by: a2capt on July 20, 2010, 04:16:12 AM
Would anyone happen to be planning on recording this series on the History Channel, starting tomorrow?

I'm on the road .. I hadn't turned on the TV in a while ..

Most Extreme Airports
QuoteMany airports constructed just 50 years ago may not be sufficient to handle the demands of 21st century aircraft. This special unpacks the particular problems of the world's most extreme airports and examines the engineering behind them, from centuries-old territorial battles that have led to unsafe layouts, to geographical challenges like wind currents and natural obstacles that make these places unfit for travel.
Premiers Tuesday 20-July .. 8PM

Come on up to the Sierra foothills in Central and Northern CA and I'll show you quite a few of these airports.  In fact, I fly out of one: Mariposa or KMPI.
