Seinfeld fans - new SNFLD STAR into MCO

[RussR]

On the FAA's IFP Gateway for MCO, coordination tab, for the KMCO SNFLD ONE ARRIVAL (RNAV). Includes such fixes at NOOMN, GTOUT (get out!). Proposed to be published 4/22.

Is there some link between Seinfeld and Orlando, FL that I don't understand, or is this just bored STAR fix naming?

No idea... just saw it and found it amusing!

I guess everything 5 letters and pronounceable was already used somewhere else but without Kramer I just can’t get to excited about it. NOOMN was a nice touch though. Hmm, 4/22. Is this thing still open for comment?

They should have made NOOMN to NOSUP since its before FORYU.

I wonder who at Approach Design Central my home airport of KDTO has to thank for the theme surrounding the RNAV approaches to our new west side runway, 18R/36L

Hulu, owned by Disney, had the rights to stream Seinfeld. Supposed to be shifting to Netflix, but suspect the FAA doesn't keep up with who has rights to what.

Hulu, owned by Disney...

Holy crap! So they weren’t lying about the mind control back in 2009!
