Extractions: Driving from the airport to Phoenix, we knew we were experiencing a city that was very much unlike many of the major metropolises in the USA or Canada. Our first clue was that everything seemed new to us, even the expressways with their unique architecture paying tribute to the city's Native American heritage. What was most impressive was its unique towering desert mountain skyline that was not hidden by huge skyscrapers. Yes, there were a few tall buildings around, but nothing to compare to those of New York, Boston, Atlanta, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Toronto or Montreal. And these were not obstructing the magnificent views of Squaw Peak, Camelback Mountain, the bulky South Mountains, or the McDowells. Nicknamed the "Valley of the Sun," and blessed with over 300 days of sunshine, Phoenix is set within a flat valley at an elevation of roughly 1,100 feet. With its unusual cacti, desert colors of reds, tans and brown, pink bougainvillea vines and greens, brown grove date palms, spiky Yuccas, and glorious sunsets on its mountains, it can probably boast of being one of the finest natural settings of any in the USA.

Weiner U.S. Army Corps of Engineer, Gulf Region District South BAGHDAD, Iraq, Dec. 16, 2004 Rumors have it that, in the past 10 years, Basrah International Airport opened only when VIPs were visiting the country, and people worked at the airport only on those occasions. But, in July 2005, Basrah International Airport will officially open for commercial air and passenger traffic. The airport was never really functional, said Nolan Smith, assistant area engineer for the Basrah office, Gulf Region South, U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. It was never formally opened to large commercial flights, primarily because of war. But now, it could open up to cargo flights in the very near future. All systems have to be brought to international standards before any cargo or commercial planes can land, said Smith. Other projects, for which the Corps is not responsible, include providing fire engines and training firemen for the requisite fire station.

Extractions: Federal Aviation Administration FFRDC CAASD addresses aviation challenges in the cockpit, on the tarmac, and in the sky. Overview MITRE has helped the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) address the nation's most critical aviation issues since the company's creation in 1958. In recognition of this long and fruitful relationship, the FAA designated MITRE's aviation program as a Federally Funded Research and Development Center in 1990 and named the new entity the Center for Advanced Aviation System Development (CAASD). In addition to supporting the FAA, CAASD works with civil aviation authorities around the world, all of which face similar challenges. This enables us to increase our knowledge of best practices in aviation and share them with all our customers. Challenges A few of the challenges we are helping customers address include: Improving aviation safety and security Increasing the capacity and efficiency of the national airspace Enhancing flexibility in the use of aviation system resources Reducing flight delays and traffic management constraints Establishing collaborative decision-making to improve traffic flow planning Developing broadcast services to improve safety in areas with little radar and to enhance airport capacity in marginal weather conditions

History Of Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport The airport was designed with four runways, the main northsouth at 6855 feet Renowned architect Cesar Pelli designed a Washington landmark that is both http://www.metwashairports.com/national/history.htm
Extractions: An Historic Landmark of the Nation's Capital Serving the People Who Make History for More than 60 Years... Almost from the beginning of the English Colonial History of this continent, the crest of the National Airport site has been rich in historic significance. The Gravelly Point site has significance dating back to colonial days. Captain John Alexander built a mansion called "Abingdon" on the site in 1746. A descendent, Philip Alexander, donated most of the land on which the City of Alexandria was built, and it was so named in his honor. The mansion was purchased in 1778 by John Parke Custis, and was the birthplace of Eleanor "Nelly" Parke Custis, stepdaughter of President George Washington. Abingdon was destroyed by fire in 1930 and the ruins stabilized until 1998 when the Airports Authority preserved the site and housed artifacts found there in the Exhibit Hall, located in Terminal A. Airport facilities in Washington, D.C. had long been seriously inadequate early in the 20th Century. Hoover Field, located near the present site of the Pentagon, was the first major terminal to be developed in the Capital area, opening its doors in 1926. The following year, Washington Airport, another privately operated field, began service next door. In 1930, the economics of the Great Depression caused the two terminals to merge to form Washington-Hoover Airport. Bordered on the east by Highway One, with its accompanying high-tension electrical wires, and obstructed by a high smokestack on one approach and a dump nearby, the field was less than adequate. Incredibly, the airport's one runway was intersected by a busy vehicular street, Military Road, which had guards posted to flag down traffic during takeoffs and landings.

Extractions: Apollo is represented upon the Coadeware plaque above the temple entrance into the Library playing a double pipe and wearing the skin of a wild beast freshly hunted. Latrobe also symbolised Apollo's presence at the house by styling the Paestumesque-proportioned columns with the plain shanks of those at the Temple of Apollo on the island of Delos. Built for entertaining by Latrobe in 1792 the house comes to life best today when hosting concerts and dinners whilst retaining its primary function as a family home. On two afternoons a week in the summer visitors enjoy tours and cream teas. There are also two guest suites which can be a useful base for those using Gatwick Airport. Hammerwood Park East Grinstead Sussex RH19 3QE 01342 850594 We hope you will have great fun adventurously following links below. Built in 1792, contemporary with the French Revolution, the house was built to appear palacial but in fact is only about one-third of the size it looks. The effect is assisted by various subtle effects but principally the columns on the wings are half the size of those on the central block - so they look as though they are set back a huge distance. The columns on the temples are tapered to make them look taller than they really are. New: here's a set of colour photographs which we hope you will enjoy The South Front tour
J.G. Ballard: Airports - Observer Article airports then were places where America arrived to greet us, and motelarchitecture that unvaryingly surrounds every major airport in the world. http://www.jgballard.com/airports.htm
Extractions: By J.G. Ballard [The Observer 14/9/97] Airports and airfields have always held a special magic, gateways to the infinite possibilities that only the sky can offer. In 1946, when I first came to England, a dark and derelict shell of a country, I used to dream of the runways of Wake Island and Midway, stepping stones that would carry me back across the Pacific to the China of my childhood. At school in Cambridge, and later as a medical student at King's college, I would flee all that fossilised Gothic self-immersion and ride a borrowed motorcycle to the American airbases at Mildenhall and Lakenheath, happy to stare through the wire at the lines of silver bombers and transport planes. Airports then were places where America arrived to greet us, where the world of tomorrow touched down in Europe. Sadly, Britain faltered on the way to its own future, half-heartedly erecting a shabby urban limbo of under-serviced municipal towers and wind-swept shopping precincts. Together they provided the nostalgia- worshippers with all the ammunition needed to launch their postmodernist counter-attack. The pitched roof seemed to rule the Eighties, a vernacular dialect unable to distinguish a town hall from a supermarket or fire station, too many temples to tweeness that resemble offerings on the altar of Prince Charles's uneasy conscience.
