AND FROM LAST WEEK
We”ve been inundated with airport names including Washington National Airport, named after Ronald Reagan. It has also been pointed out that the Democrats want equal time but so far have not come up with anybody with a reputation for a smooth landing. Bill Clinton is a no no. Cologne/Bonn is officially - Konrad Adenauer Airport, Berlin -Tegel Otto Lilienthal, Atlanta - Hartsfield Jackson and there is John Wayne, Orange County. In the UK we have of course Robin Hood International which is nowhere near Nottingham. The subject is closed unless someone has a really bright offering.
