My name is Luka,
I live upstairs from you,

And after that, you don't ask why.
You just don't argue any more

A beautiful, yet very sad song

Where holds the record for the busiest airport in a single day?

The world record for the busiest airport in a single day is held by Silverstone Heliport in Silverstone motor racing circuit. Set on July 11 1999, the day of the British Grand Prix, there were 4,200 documented aircraft movements (1 aircraft movement is either a landing or takeoff) from dawn till dusk. This remarkable achievement took 24 air traffic controllers, a continuous message broadcast (ATIS) service and 6 full air traffic control radio frequencies. Even more remarkably, this was done completely on a VFR (Visual Flight Rules) basis without the assistance of radar or other electronic navigation aids.

I attended that race, and when the race and podium ceremony were over, the air was like a scene from Apocalypse Now.
