Passing by...but that's it :(

I am guessing someone who likes fishing got to name those? With the thousands of fixes and intersections, a lot of funny things get made up/used.

Some people may or may not know that some of the arrivals (basically specified routes in the sky that aircraft use when approaching to land at a particular airport) are charted for visual reference on paper and on iPads...these arrivals also have names....for MCO, there are a few Disney type arrivals:

GOOFY 6
MINEE 5
PIGLT 4

Sometimes the arrivals themselves in certain cities have fixes named for sports players, famous things about the location, just funny "jokes" that someone came up with. It is interesting to see these as you go from place to place.

That's great! It's comforting (sort of) to know people in a serious role have a sense of humor.

And I found "Barbs" and "Worms" here. On path V267. Looks like "Worms" is SE of Deland airport and "Barbs" is between Lake George and Ormond Beach.

(Oh the fun I have while sitting in on a tedious conference call with consultants )

Hah....sounds like fun

Here is another funny one to show how this humor is spread around in different places.

An arrival/approach to the Runway 16 in Portsmouth, NH has 5 fixes that you fly over in the following order. Can you figure it out? (Hint: the folks at Warner Bros. would appreciate it)
