Anchorage International Airport,
aka Ted Stevens Anchorage International Airport
[ANC/PANC]

[I have been here 1979 flying from Paris (Air France B747), one hour stop here at Anchorage, then to Tokyo]

Built 1951.
Anchorage was a common stopover for passengers flying to East Asia until the late 1980s because airspace in China, Soviet Union
and Eastern Bloc countries were off-limits and because the first generation of jets and widebody airliners did not have the range to fly non-stop across the Pacific Ocean. The airport was renamed in 2000.

Is a state-owned, public-use airport located west of the central business district of Sitka, a city and borough that has no direct road access to the outside world, although it has car ferry access.

Safety hazards include ocean waves washing onto the runway during storms,
high winds because of its exposed location, and large flocks of birds that live very close to the airport.
Due to these hazards, the airport is listed by airfarewatchdog.com as one of the ten most thrilling landing experiences in the world.
