I've seen something that identifies it as a US airport...I think.
Possibly Hartsfield Atlanta Intl. ?
But delivered, signed and sealed... I tell you the image aint Hartsfield.

Mmm... US, Southern States and International all in one question?
The Poet, Fisherman and Genie say:
A bold question it is you ask
And you have a penchant for angling many fishes
But even if you take me to task
I'll only grant two of your three wishes
The Linguist says:
Fishes ? FISHES !*?
The Poet says:
Poetry my good man... poetry
The Genie says:
Kerpoooooooooooof!... two wishes are answered: this is an airport which is both US and International
Time to bottle up and go now......Kerpaaaaaaaaaaaaahwf!

Form Anchorage to Houston
You travel far and wide
Alas, my friends, your guesses
Are not on the 'correct side'
As I'm sure you all know, there are 50 US States... very soon I will post up a set of simple problems for you to solve which will remove 3 of them from your 'possibles' list.

OK Guys 'n' Gals
As promised here's some problems to solve which will reduce your 'possibles' list. As usual, there are no trick clues etc.
The Problem Proprietor pronounces:
1) If you look at a plan view of this State's boundaries and colour it in, you could almost imagine it was a silhouette of a pixie sitting in a box. And this airport sure as hell aint in no Pixie-in-a-box State bros!
2) If this airport was in a State which has a plough on it's flag, then you would find it very quickly. But it isn't.
3) In keen anticipation of Christmas, The Lingusit is wondering what present to get for The Genie. In a flash of inspiration he calls out: Ha!, a Wii!
The Fisherman looks at him and says: yes, I get your riddle Linguist. You and your anagrams! But the problem is that if The Genie wants to get to this airport, your anagram's no good to him or anyone else.
Each problem alludes to one US State and tells you if the airport is in that State or not.

Don't know what a Pixie looks like?... never seen a real one myself either but I think you have the gist of it... they wear pointy hats and Idaho certainly fits the image far more than the others.

Pennsylvania does, indeed, have a plough on it's flag.
Originally posted by Petertenthije View Post3) Hawai'i
And Hawaii is, of course, the anagram you solved.
So, to confirm, the airport is not in any of these States:
Hawaii
Idaho
Pennsylvania
