Women drove from Russelville, AR drove to Little Rock and went to the TWA counter and asked for a ticket to Fayetteville. They sent her to STL and then to Fayetvillie, AR on my Metroliner She wanted Fayeteville NC, Normally on the trip we would continue to LIT but due a holiday schedule we were done. She had to rent a car to Russelville, spend the night and take the rental car the next morning to LIT and start over! Fayetteville to Little Rock was a terrible road complete with run-a-way truck pits.
That’s happened on HEMS flights in SE Missouri — Springfield, MO and IL. It happens. On the other hand, my Mensa reject apparently spent Geography class picking his nose. KCK and KCMO are separated by a line on the map and serviced by the same airport.
