Did a little research...this looks cool

The names of 2 of the approach procedures that all aircraft follow into their arrival at Orlando International Airport are named GOOFY TWO and MINEE TWO. Any pilot that flies into there can confirm this

Actually, I think you'll find that they're the GOOFY FIVE and MINEE FIVE arrivals.

GOOFY FIVE Arrival

MINEE FIVE Arrival

There's also the PIGLT TWO Arrival but that one's RNAV.

My tip: if you ask for a cup of ice water, at any counter service, you will receive a FREE cup of ice water.

Bottled water costs a fortune, and I'm okay with FL water, so it's an excellent thing to me.

The water in the counter service places comes out of the Coke fountain machine so the water should be filtered

Not sure what my favorite was...think it was ...er Coke....

Some of the stuff really was kind of freaky and to my American palate...kind of nasty.

But to each his own...Tink that was a good idea, glad you remember it. Kind of cool to think the formula has to be tweaked to fit culuture's tastes.
