Default Finding nearest airport


Does anyone know if a site that provides an "offline" version of the GPS
nearest airport function? I'd like to be able to enter a given city and
find the nearest aiports to that city. Yahoo's SmartView will find
larger airports (I'm guessing those with airline service), but it misses
the smaller GA airports.

A quick net search didn't turn up anything. Well, I did find a site to
use to locate the nearest Shell station...
