TIDBITS® LANDS AT A FEW AIRPORTS
by Kathy Wolfe
This week, Tidbits takes to the air to scope out some of the world’s airports.
• As of 2022, there are 13,513 airports or airfields in the United States, more than any other country in the world. Brazil is a distant second with just under 4,100. The runways may be paved or unpaved, but must be recognizable from the air in order to be counted.
• There are different methods of determining the world’s largest airport. One is by physical size, which gives the honor to Saudi Arabia’s King Fahd International, occupying nearly 300 square miles, about the size of all five New York City boroughs combined. But despite its size, King Fahd is only the third-busiest airport in Saudi Arabia, with about 9.7 million passengers annually. The airport that hosts the most passengers is in Guangzhou, China, with nearly 44 million passengers passing through every year. Seven out of ten of the world’s highest passenger counts are at airports in China. The distinction of the largest total volume -- the most take-offs and landings -- belongs to Atlanta, Georgia’s airport.
• The world’s tallest air traffic control tower is at Saudi Arabia’s Jeddah King Abdulaziz International Airport. At 446 feet (136 m), it stands taller than the Great Pyramid of Giza. Malaysia’s Kuala Lumpur tower is a close second at 439 feet (133.8), comprising 33 floors and a rooftop. Atlanta, Georgia, is home to the tallest tower in North America, 398 feet tall (121.3 m).

• Denver International Airport, by physical size, is the second-largest airport in the world, with an area of about 53 square miles (136 sq. km) –larger than Manhattan -- and has the longest public use runway in North America. Located 25 miles (40 km) from downtown Denver, it’s 19 miles (31 km) farther from downtown than Stapleton International Airport, which it replaced in 1995. Stapleton had been the city’s primary airport since 1929, but had no room to add additional flights and its runways were too close together to accommodate jets properly. The property was redeveloped as a commercial and residential neighborhood. DIA opened 16 months behind schedule and $2 billion over budget. With 35,000 employees, it’s Colorado’s largest employer. DIA experiences upwards of 48,000 items in their Lost and Found department every year.
• San Francisco’s airport is built atop giant steel ball bearings that enable the building to move 20 inches (51 cm) in any direction during an earthquake. Each ball bearing is 5 feet (1.5 m) in diameter and is built into each of the 267 columns that support the weight of the airport. When the ground moves, the bearings move, but the building does not.
• On June 14, 1777, the Second Continental Congress passed the Flag Resolution, which determined that the U.S. flag would consist of 13 alternating red and white stripes and 13 white, five-pointed stars on a blue background.
• On June 12, 1817, the earliest form of bicycle -- known as the Laufmaschine in German and in English by the derogatory term “dandy horse” -was demonstrated by its inventor, Karl Drais.
• On June 16, 1903, Pepsi-Cola became an official trademark. The Pepsi Cola Company had launched just the year before, to immediate success, and by 1910, boasted more than 200 franchises in 24 states.
• On June 18, 1978, American serial killer and sex offender Jeffrey Dahmer murdered his first victim just three weeks after his high school graduation. Dahmer had lured 18-year-old hitchhiker Steven Mark Hicks to his house with the promise of a few beers.
• On June 13, 1981, Queen Elizabeth II was shot at with six blank rounds by Marcus Sarjeant while she was riding a horse. The queen managed to keep her horse under control and was not injured. When police questioned Sarjeant about his motives, he said: “I wanted to be famous. I wanted to be a somebody.”

• From 1963 to 1998, Chicago’s O’Hare Airport was the world’s busiest airport. It is currently in fourth place, serving about 27 million passengers annually. The airport opened in 1944 as Orchard Field Airport, but was renamed in 1949 to honor U.S. Navy pilot Edward O’Hare. The airport has 193 gates servicing 44 airlines, with about 760 domestic nonstop flights to U.S. cities daily.
• On June 17, 1985, fighter pilot and Saudi prince Sultan bin Salman Al Saud became the first Arab, the first Muslim and the first member of a royal family to fly into space, on NASA’s Discovery Space Shuttle, as a payload specialist. He chose not to fast for Ramadan while he was training and in space, but brought a small Koran along for the trip, with a prayer from his mother asking God to protect travelers, and tied his feet to the shuttle floor to prostrate himself in prayer as best he could.

• San Francisco also has an unusual therapy animal to help anxious travelers calm down before a flight. LiLou is the airport’s therapy pig, a hog who wears various costumes including a ballerina tutu while she performs tricks throughout the terminal.
• Paro Airport in the country of Bhutan high in the Himalayan Mountains is one of the world’s most challenging airports to land in, so much so that only eight pilots are certified to land there. Located 7,332 feet (2,235 m) above sea level, this airport is surrounded by the peaks of the Himalayas rising as high as 18,000 feet (5,500 m). Pilots must land on a tiny runway cut out of dense forests while frequently battling ferocious winds roaring through the valley. About 30,000 people fly into mountainous Bhutan every year.

• On June 15, 2019, Babe Ruth’s baseball jersey became the most expensive sports memorabilia in history when it sold for a staggering $5.6 million. According to Hunt Auctions, the jersey dated to between 1928 and 1930 and broke the previous record of $4.4 million set by a 1920 Ruth jersey.

PHOTO CAPTION: Shake up your morning with delicious Shakshuka.
The history of Shakshuka is a bit murky, with some claiming it originated in Tunisia, while others say it was invented in Israel or North Africa.
Regardless of its origins, Shakshuka has become a beloved dish around the world, and for good reason. It’s a comforting, warming dish that’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, lunch or dinner.
Get National Egg Day off to a Delicious Start With Budget-Friendly
Shakshuka
Did you know that National Egg Day is coming up on June 3? I hope you’re ready to celebrate and start your day with a delicious and nutritious meal, because I’ve got a recipe for you that’s sure to impress: Shakshuka!
But first, let’s talk about egg prices. Yes, it’s true, the cost of eggs has doubled since this time last year, but there’s hope on the horizon. Eggs are expected to drop a total of about 30% by the end of the year, according to the USDA. The price isn’t back to where it was, but at least it’s going in the right direction.
But fear not, dear readers, because even with these prices, eggs are still a nutritional bargain. Not only are they an affordable source of protein, but they’re also packed with nutrients like vitamin D, choline and omega-3 fatty acids.
And what better way to enjoy these little nutritional powerhouses than in a classic dish like Shakshuka? For those who are new to this dish, Shakshuka is a Middle Eastern breakfast dish made with eggs poached in a flavorful tomato sauce. It’s a delicious, easy-to-make one-pan wonder. And it’s versatile enough to accommodate a range of dietary needs.
So, without further ado, here’s the recipe for Shakshuka:
SKILLET SHAKSHUKA
Yield: 4 servings
Total Time: 30 minutes
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
2 bell peppers (any color), seeded and chopped
1 (4 ounce) can mild green chilis
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon paprika
1 tablespoon cumin
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes
8 eggs
1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled or sliced
Parsley or cilantro, chopped
Salt and pepper
www.JasonCoblentz.com
Shake up your morning with delicious Shakshuka.
4 thick slices of crusty bread
Note: Don’t use a cast iron or aluminum skillet, as the highly acidic
tomato sauce may cause a reaction with the metal. It won’t hurt you, but the Shakshuka will taste metallic and may harm the seasoning of your cast iron pan.
In your skillet, warm the oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and let that cook for a few minutes to soften. Add the bell peppers and green chilis, cooking for 5 minutes, stirring as needed.
Add the garlic, paprika and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the tomatoes and their juices. Reduce heat and let this simmer for at least 10 minutes to allow the flavor to marry. At this time, if you choose, you can place the skillet on very low heat and let it simmer until you’re ready to cook the eggs.
Using the back of a spoon, make wells in the tomato mixture. Crack the eggs into the sauce, spacing them evenly apart. Cover and allow the eggs to cook until the whites are set and the yolk is cooked to your desired consistency, about 5-7 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings.
Serve immediately, sprinkled with feta cheese, chopped parsley and lots of crusty bread.
Diva Tip: Use a vegetable peeler to thinly slice the feta cheese so it melts beautifully over everything. And there you have it, folks. Celebrate the humble egg with Shakshuka. It’s a delicious and affordable meal that’s perfect any time of day. Bon appetit!

• If you want to fly to the Caribbean island of Saba, you’ll be landing on the shortest commercial runway in the world, just 1,312 ft. (400 m) long. Both ends of the runway drop into the sea. Jets are unable to land on the tiny island with an area of just 5 sq. miles (13 sq. km), but the runway accommodates helicopters and STOL (Short Take-Off and Landing) aircraft.
• For more than 20 years, Toronto’s Pearson International Airport has employed more than 30 birds of prey to scare away other birds to reduce bird strikes on airplanes. Falcons, hawks, and bald eagles frighten away geese, herons, and other nuisance birds that can fly into plane engines and knock out the engines’ power. The most famous incident was in 2009 when Captain Chesley Sullenberger glided a jet into the Hudson River after a bird strike during takeoff from New York’s LaGuardia Airport. All Canadian airports are required to have a wildlife control program in place.

• In the 1970s, the city of Montreal had colossal plans to build the biggest airport in the world. After the huge success of Expo 67 and the upcoming 1976 Summer Olympics, the city began planning for a new airport with six runways and six terminals, with a visions of grandeur. Their current airport at the time, Dorval, while having undergone modernization, was still considered too small to handle Montreal’s projected population increase to 7 million by the year 2000. The new airport, Mirabel, opened in October, 1975, and was in fact the world’s largest, and was to be the hub for international travel. It was built out in the country, 30 miles (48 km) from Montreal, to combat noise levels and complaints from city dwellers. The airport never reached its full potential expectations of 40 million passengers a year by 2000. Dorval Airport, just 20 minutes from the city, never closed as was the initial plan, and Mirabel was considered too far and hard to access. Cab fare to the airport easily topped $100. Montreal’s population growth didn’t reach projections, and soon, Toronto became the preferred airport for international flights. Mirabel never handled more than 3 million passengers annually, and in October, 2004, the last commercial passenger flight took off. The once-state-of-theart terminal, abandoned in 2004, was demolished in 2016, and Mirabel now functions as a cargo airport only.
PEOPLE WORTH REMEMBERING: EDWARD O’HARE
The name O’Hare is familiar to most, due to its association with Chicago’s 7,627-acre international airport. This week, Tidbits researches the hero whose name was assigned to the facility.
• Born in St. Louis, Missouri, Edward “Butch” O’Hare spent his high school years at the Western Military Academy, a private military preparatory school located in Alton, Illinois. Following his graduation in 1932, he entered the United States Naval Academy at Annapolis, Maryland. Post-Academy, O’Hare was assigned to the battleship USS New Mexico.
• With a dream of becoming a pilot, O’Hare entered naval aviation training in 1939, training in aerobatics and aerial gunnery. Within months, tragedy struck the O’Hare family. Butch’s father, a lawyer and accountant, who was involved with organized crime, worked closely with gangster Al Capone. “Easy Eddie,” as O’Hare was known, lived in a Chicago mansion, courtesy of Capone, for keeping the mobster out of jail numerous times. But in 1931, Eddie turned state’s evidence against Capone, the only man willing to testify against him. In addition to alerting the authorities that Capone had fixed the jury, O’Hare’s incriminating testimony led to Capone’s prosecution and conviction for tax evasion. In November, 1939, just one week before Capone was to be released from prison, Eddie O’Hare was gunned down as he drove the streets of Chicago.
• Butch O’Hare’s exceptional flying abilities brought him to the aircraft carrier USS Saratoga in 1940. After a Japanese torpedo damaged the carrier in 1942, O’Hare was transferred to the USS Lexington.

EDWARD O’HARE (cont’d)
• In February, 1942 the Lexington’s radar detected unknown aircraft 35 miles (56 km) from the ship. A wave of Japanese bombers was set to attack the Lexington, and a patrol was launched. When a second group of enemy bombers began an attack, only two U.S. fighters remained to defend the ship, O’Hare and one other pilot. When the other pilot’s guns jammed, O’Hare was on his own.
• Lieutenant O’Hare successfully shot down five bombers, earning him the designation of flying ace. He was promoted to Lieutenant Commander, and became the first naval aviator to be awarded the Medal of Honor, bestowed upon him by President Franklin D. Roosevelt.
• In 1943, the Japanese employed a strategy of flying torpedo-armed bombers on night missions. In an attempt to disable these attacks, in November, 1943, O’Hare volunteered to lead the first-ever Navy nighttime mission from an aircraft carrier to intercept the enemy bombers.
• In the midst of the battle, a Japanese bomber came up almost directly behind O’Hare’s plane. In the confusion of the dark, another U.S. aircraft fired at the enemy gunner, who fired back. O’Hare’s plane was caught in the crossfire and plunged into the sea below. A three-day search was launched, but no trace of the 29-year-old O’Hare or his aircraft was found. He left behind his wife of two years and their 10-month-old daughter.
• One year after his disappearance, O’Hare was declared dead on November 26, 1943. In 1949, in honor of the fallen hero, Chicago’s Orchard Deport Airport was renamed O’Hare International Airport.
• For 54 years, it was unclear whether O’Hare had been shot down by friendly fire or by the Japanese. In 1997, two distinguished World War II historians re-examined all the evidence, and determined that O’Hare had indeed been brought down by enemy fire.
• “Before traveling, I write down the numbers, expiration and contact information for any credit cards I plan to bring with me. I keep one copy hidden in my luggage, and another is left with a friend back home. This way, if anything happens to my wallet, I can easily call and cancel cards and arrange for replacements.”
-- R.E. in New York
• “When getting ready to entertain, I use sticky notes to organize my serving pieces. For each dish, I make two sticky notes. I label the dishes and set them out on the buffet. When I am satisfied with the arrangement, I remove one sticky note and attach it to the place the dish will remain, and the dish goes to the kitchen, still labeled until it’s filled.” -- W. in Texas
• Lipstick on your linens? Dab with petroleum jelly, then dish soap. Then launder as usual. Be sure the stain is removed before you dry the linens.
• “If you have trouble with your pantyhose, give them a spray with an anti-static spray first. Then put them on. They seem to slide up better, and it’s much easier to get a grip on them. Also, it seems to keep them from running as easily.” -D.V. in Washington
• A properly clean windshield is not only a good view, it’s safer! If your windshield blades still look good but are smearing, wipe them down with a cotton ball soaked in rubbing alcohol. If the cotton pulls off on the blade, it’s time to replace. If not, the alcohol will likely clean up that smudge.

HOSTESS
Calling all Twinkies lovers! Tidbits has the facts on the history of the Hostess Company, manufacturer of many of our favorite treats.
• The Hostess cupcake has been around since 1919, when it was first sold by the Taggart Bakery, which was also the manufacturer of Wonder Bread. In 1925, the Continental Bakery bought out Taggart, including the rights to the little chocolate cupcakes, and became the largest commercial bakery in the U.S. Two cupcakes were sold for a nickel. It was just a plain cupcake until 1950 when the vanilla crème filling was added and a white line of seven icing squiggles was added to the top in order to distinguish it from other brands. Today, 11,000 cupcakes are baked every hour, and after cooling, the cakes are injected with the vanilla crème.
• In 1930, Jimmy Dewar, the Continental Bakery manager in River F orest, Illinois, devised the idea of an oblong crèmefilled sponge cake. The question was, what should he name them? After spying a billboard advertising Twinkle Toe Shoes on his way to work, he settled on Twinkies! The little cakes, which sold as a twin-pack for five cents, were filled with banana filling. When bananas were rationed during World War II, the crème center was switched to vanilla.
• Today, at the Twinkies factory, 15,000 Twinkies are always in the oven, while 35,000 are cooling. The filling is injected through the bottoms of the cakes after cooling. Over 1,100 Twinkies are produced every minute, with 1.1 million eaten worldwide every day.
• On Twinkies’ 50th birthday, Continental Baking celebrated by creating a 10-footlong Twinkie, a cake weighing upwards of a ton, and the equivalent of 32,300 individual Twinkies.
Watermelon And Berry Pizza For Dessert
Pizza for dessert? Here’s a guiltfree, ridiculously simple and naturally sweet “pizza style” version of everyone’s favorite locally grown foods — tasty watermelon and lots of berries. There are a few things in common with the pizza idea ... well, actually only two. The dessert presentation is round, and it has lots of tempting healthy, fresh toppings.
Plus, there’s the wow factor when your kids proudly carry their work of culinary creativity to the table at an informal supper with your family and friends. They’ll be so proud.
Kick it up for other events, too. We’re making doubles for my son’s birthday party this weekend, and topping them off with lots of bright candles.
WATERMELON AND BERRY PIZZA
Makes 6 servings
— 12 strawberries halved
— 6 mint leaves chopped
— 1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
— 1 large watermelon slice (1 inch or more thick), 10 inches in diameter
— 6 ounces natural lemon-flavored yogurt, or 3 ounces creme fraiche
— 1/2 cup blueberries
— Mint sprigs for garnish (optional)
In a small bowl, drizzle balsamic vinegar over the strawberries, and stir.
Set aside.
Let your junior chef wash and dry the whole watermelon. An adult should slice a 10-inch round at the center portion and set on a serving plate. (If your watermelon is smaller or larger, cut the widest portion for this dessert and adjust quantities.)
Evenly cut the slice into sixths. Pinch the cut triangles tightly together on the plate.
Ask your child to spread the yogurt or creme fraiche over the round.
Spoon the strawberries and blueberries over the yogurt. Sprinkle with chopped mint. I like to add an extra sprig of mint on the side or in the middle of the presentation.
Serve slices on a dessert plate.

HOLLYWOOD -- It’s been 20 years since Jamie Lee Curtis and Lindsey Lohan made “Freaky Friday,” (2003). The story about a mother and daughter whose bodies are switched was funny when Curtis was 44 and Lohan was 16. Now, they’re 64 and 36, how freaky can that Friday be? Winning a supporting actress Oscar (for “Everything Everywhere All at Once”) can make all your wishes come true, and Disney is anxious to utilize her fame. She’s already completed the $158 million horror/comedy, “The Haunted Mansion,” with Tiffany Haddish, Owen Wilson, Danny DeVito, Rosario Dawson, Dan Levy and Jared Leto, (the second to feature their Haunted Mansion attraction), hits theaters July 28th. Curtis also wrapped the sci/ fi action/comedy, “Borderlands,” costarring heavyweights Cate Blanchett, Kevin Hart and Jack Black.

ALTERNATE IDEAS
— Instead of using yogurt or creme fraiche, whip up a half cup of heavy cream with a 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla and a teaspoon of sugar, or whip cream with two teaspoons of honey.
— Fresh sliced peaches, nectarines and plums also are welcome add-ons to the dessert.
