Kind of funny that a particular patch of the martian expanse has now been dedicated as an 'airfield'.

- caf 6y agoIt even has an ICAO airport code, JZRO.
- p1mrx 6y ago"The letters I and X are not currently used as the first letter of any ICAO identifier, and the letter J is only used in a ceremonial ICAO identifier granted to Jezero Crater on the planet Mars, JZRO." Did they just set a precedent for J as the Mars prefix?
- XorNot 6y agoYep. Nothing more permanent then temporary and all that - when Mars needs another airfield area, someone's going to Google for guidance, see that J and go "well, let's be consistent..."
- shric 6y agoHope they add it to Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
- luxuryballs 6y agowe now have airfields on different planets!
