Default FYI: Dec 12 MythBusters: Airplane Hour

I would be interested in knowing which airport that is. I know that they
have used Alameda and Hamilton in the past. Which airport are you referring
to?

Quoted from the Discovery channel
schedule:http://dsc.discovery.com/tv-schedule...=1.13056.24704....

(My local paper's weekly TV schedule has just the brief summary "Landing
a
747" so I presume the plane they attempt to land without training is a
747.
Will be interesting to see if they try the real thing and are not limited
to a simulator.)


I'm really anxious to see this episode, because apparently they filmed
the treadmill myth at my home airport.
