Pynchonesque: Missouri City is in Clay County, not Platte County where the Kansas City International Airport is located (referred to locally as KCI). The initials MCI stand for Mid-Continent International. The original airport downtown is MKC: Muncipal Kansas City airport, used now for general aviation. Also, I believe the SPRINT and MCI telecom deal is off.

Correct about SVO (Sheremetevo, to the Northwest of town) and DME (Domodedevo, to the Southeast of town). Moscow has two other airports as well: Vnukovo (VKO) and what I believe is the now-mothballed Bykovo.
