...to change the fix names on the ILS 35 into MSP?

The fixes are JAMEZ OBERR SSTAR

I flew that for the first time the other day, and I thought I was gonna puke. That is the most disgusting thing I have seen in a long time.

The fix names change all of the time, my personal favorites is the changing of the name of Washington National Airport, or the former Idlewild airport.

Don't change it .. just create another fix like AZHOL, DICCK, or PRICK just before or after it.

Well on the paitn one arrival into ORD they had BOHCA (Bend over here it comes again) then OBSTR (for REP. Oberstar) then CSTLO (for REP. Costello). REP. Costello was also a big fish on the aviation sub committee. Some one finally caught wind of it and renamed the BOHCA intersection. It think it was in there for a couple of years before someone caught it.

tsquare,

There's also the WLSTN departure in MSP. That makes me want to puke as well, so I just mispronounce it and call it "williston".

Paul Wellstone (D-Minnesota) was one of the most liberal senators during his time in office. He was Jesse Jackson's campaign manager back in '88.
