There’s more than one Crazy Woman out there...
It doesn’t exist anymore, but the old TWSTD arrival into IAH featured fix names such as MENTL FRAGL WHACK PSYCO CRNKY NUTZZ and PROZC. Perhaps it was the same poor fella who chose DIVCE and HOBIG as fix names for the ILS 21 into KMSN. |
Flying around Africa, Cameroon has the two best airport identifiers I’ve ever found. Flying south to north you’ll cross
FKKN FKKR Ngaoundéré and Garoua Airports. 😂 |

There used to be an intersection around Houston Hobby, where there are a bunch of strip joints, named TIDDY. I don't think it's there anymore.

They're points defined by navigational aids (two VORS, distance + radial of one VOR, NDB, LOC, etc). The one's that you see on your Sectional are the same ones used on Low-Alt IFR maps.
My faves would be GOONS around the Georgia / Alabama borders, TEPEE and ZEXYY around Tampa, FL, and THNDR near Pahokee, FL |
your favorite fix or VOR name?
Patriotic fixes at DCA.
A couple of cool fixes in Florida near Cape Canaveral where the space shuttles use to launch from. |
