How many airports do you reckon there are in the US?
 
Just came across this random fact, how many do you reckon...?


















Nearly 15,000!!!!

I don't know what's scarier, the number or the fact that the CIA only have an estimate!

You'd think if anyone would know, they would...

Depends what they define as an airport really. Plus the estimate could be due to the fact that in some of the wider expanses, Billy Bob and his wife/sister/cousin (same person) could have a little airstrip setup, for crop dustin' and coon huntin' and I doubt it'd be a registered airfield.

that reminds me of the jimmy carr sketch from one of his dvds,

i was going on holiday last week, and while waiting at the airport i went upto the 'airport information' kiosk and asked..... how many airports are there in the world?
she didn t know, call yourself information!
(along those lines any way)
