Reminds me more of what Del Rio is really like...a pile of DRT. (I can say that after living there for a year)

Where do you guys get these codes from? I maintain a Greasemonkey script that pops up an airport's name when you hover over its code anywhere on the FlyerTalk site. It has most codes but I'd love to make it more comprehensive.

Flyertalk should institute this as a feature.
