Can't believe LaGuardia didn't make the cut.

Those all look significantly unsettling.

The two places I've flown into or out of that left me most disconcerted are:

Pittsburgh. The airport is (or was, the last time I flew into Pittsburgh, in the late 1980s) on the top of a leveled off mountain, and on the approach your flight comes in *below* the level of the runways and climbs up to land. Trust me, that's disconcerting.

Phoenix. Here, the unsettling part is the take0ff, because, no mater which direction the plane is headed, it's headed into mountains.
