airport KFMV?

Aviation Notable Activity
1

I just noticed a flight, a Cessna Skyhawk, which flew from KFMV to KTNT (Dade-Collier Training Airport in the 'Glades). Now, the funny thing is I am unaware of an “FMV” in the US. There is a French airport designated as such (LFMV). I cannot find anything on a KFMV though. I tend to think the Skyhawk didn’t come over from LFMV, either. :wink:

Here is the info:

The date (1970?!) is apparently a mistake . . . but is the airport of origin also?

Anyone know about this KFMV?

Looks like it was a VFR flight with the pilot requesting VFR advisories The controller probably meant to enter KFMY as the departure airport. I see all sorts of entries along the same lines, putting a K in front of a VOR identifier is one, the ATC sector designator is another one.

Thanks! That would make sense! :slight_smile:
