This month's navaid is in the western United States. 

It's named after the nearby small town, and is located on one of the biggest Indian Reservations.

Some people around here actually enjoy Starvation.

ANSWER: (SCROLL DOWN, BY REQUEST)




























































Myton, Utah (MTU)

This Navaid is at a Regional Airport in the United States.
 
It's named after the city where it and the airport are located. 

That name refers to the large body of water nearby, and the city's harbor.

The daughter of the late Meteorologist John Hope should probably keep her first name a secret when she's in town.

Answer: Gulfport (GPT)

Happy New Year!
This month's navaid is located at a U.S airport.  Its name is the same as the airport as well as the town it's located in, which is the county seat, even though it's not the largest town in that area.  The name, ironically, means "cold chill".
The photo was taken from a 767-300.

2. Dale Gentry - Southwest Airlines
3. Adam Gutterman
4. Steven Mercer - SkyWest Airlines
5.  Kenneth Dechmerowski - National Airlines
6. Adam Schweber - Jeppesen
7. Ed Pataky

This navaid is at a major U.S. airport.
  
The airport, when it was privately owned, was named after a 19th century battle, in another state.  It's now named after a politician.

There used to be another VOR two states away by the same name, but the odds are that it was changed to avoid confusion.
