What's the farthest west civilian airport in the Aleutians? I see
military airports on Shemya and Attu: what happens if a civilian
aircraft comes along and politely asks to join the traffic pattern?

PATU, Casco Cove CGS, is listed as joint use. It's at 173 degrees EAST.

mysql select * from waypoint where type = 'AIRPORT' and state = 'AK'
and

longitude -150 order by longitude;


Adak is at long -176.6460306, is open to the public and has a very nice,
modern airport.

-173 is further west than -176.


How did you arrive at that conclusion? Assuming -180 (W) = +180 (E) =
International date line.
