what was his contribution to aviation that gets his name on an airport? Phoenix Sky Harbor has a cool sounding name not tied to hatred. why not come up with something better?
Guess you never saw "The High and the Mighty."
i had forgotten about that movie.
Should go back to being Orange County, just like Bob Hope should go back to being Burbank. Nobody even remembers who these people are anyway.
That is a point. I will always call it 'National Airport'. They renamed a major concert venue for an energy company. There aren't many people that use the name of the energy company for that place. That, and someone found a billboard with the old name still on it. A decade after the renaming!
I was born in a military hospital named for a general that gave his life to defend his troops. Works for me.

I don't know why they named the airport for Mr Wayne in the first place. He lived in Newport Beach and despised KSNA. There's a large statue of him in the terminal. Do they plan to rip that down too?
