My student looked up at about the right time, saw a runway, and went for it. Unfortunately, it was the wrong airport. Until you pointed it out I had not noticed that the government charts don't depict nearby airports on approach plates. The Jepp plates have light gray airport symbols for anything you might see along the approach. It'd be interesting to see the Jepp plate for 12N. The do as in this case http://204.108.4.16/d-tpp/0503/00877VT14.PDF A North West crew landed at Ellsworth by mistake last June. They got fired.
