(USA) Interesting FAA data
Well then, I am curious!
Which airport in the US has 8 runways... The national centerline champion is, well, unique. All eight runways are 1800 by 150 feet. And the airport is completely symetrical around four axis. It is owned by the Navy, in Florida: http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&geocode=&time=&date=&ttype=&q=N30%C 2%B037'00%22+W087%C2%B008'00%22&ie=UTF8&ll=30.6253 94,-87.139521&spn=0.026958,0.046349&t=h&z=15&om=1 (No doubt you'll need to reassemble the above link to make it work.) The airport with "only" seven runways is DFW, with three of them at 13400' in length.

Wow, that link works.
I forgot to add, the airport is Spencer NOLF (Navy Outlying Field).

The squares sure look like helipads and there's three helos flyin in that image. -- Message posted via AviationKB.com http://www.aviationkb.com/Uwe/Forums...aring/200801/1
