Does anyone know why Mustang VOR (Reno) is FMG?

Because of Mustang Ranch.... stands for F**k My Girls - FMG.

I always wondered about FMG when I was flying out there, Is that conjecture or is that a fact? I will regain much of my faith in the FAA if they actually had had that much of a sense of humor........

Coming into Burbank, most of the intersections from Bakersfield South are named after OAK Center controllers. JEFFY retired late last year. LYNXX retired much earlier. ADAMM is still working last I heard.

One can hold at LIMBO awaiting further clearance to Paradise (PDZ).

A missed approach fix is UGONE off Lancaster, KWJF.
