    Cyril E King in St Thomas, Virgin Islands . . .

    was really cool when it was a 1940s Navy hangar. It went through Hurricane Hugo without a scratch in 1989.

    When they tore down the hangar and replaced it in the 90's, the air conditioning had to be torn out and replaced when it was discovered that tropical environments would breed Legionnaire's Disease in the tower-cooling air conditioning system. STT's airport still sucks.

    And I HATE HATE HATE Miami International, especially as an international arrival - the surliest, nastiest immigration and customs officers in all of homeland security, along with some of the smelliest, rudest air travelers you will ever wait in line with.
