First I am using Outlook Express and I can't figure out how to reply with
out repeating the previous post. If anyone can help please advise me.


Using Outlook Express, just select the parts of the previous message you
don't want repeated and delete it.

Most of the airport codes seem to try to be mnemonic, but the reasoning

can
be a little deep. PWA for instance is Wiley Post Airport in Oklahoma City,
OKC where the main airport is Will Rogers International.

^^^ (Will Rogers WORLD Airport)

I flew out of OKC as an airline passenger many times, a few times
(indirectly) to SIN. I did my flight training at PWA. That's why I listed
those...

EOK Is Keokuk. Makes sense. CID Cedar Rapids. CVG is my favorite.

Greater
Cincinnati, OH airport, located in Covington, KY. Get it now?


These are ones that I'm familiar with too. A lot of 3-letter identifiers
make 'some' sense but I haven't figured out how Carroll, IA got CIN (C for
Carroll, I for Iowa and N for Neu?), MFE (McAllen Miller International) and
also JYG... The identifiers with numbers make even less sense...
