Must have been some close calls (or actual misidentifications) amongst El Paso (KELP) and Biggs Army Airfield (KBIF) in the past too.

CTN: BIGGS AAF 2NM NW RWY 21 CAN BE MISTAKEN FOR ELP RWY 22

I remember my first time going in there and many people warned me about the possibility of misidentification and probably made it even MORE nerve racking than it needed to be

Best of luck to the crew - but there is going to be "sum explaning to do Luuuucy" (imagine Desi Arnez accent)
