Name these US Airports from above

This very golden and shiny airport sees 3x daily roundtrips on a single regional carrier.
San Angelo Regional Airport, TX. Too funny, I had this photo stashed away for future use on my own because I thought it looked so unique from above!

This regional is served by one carrier. It’s known for one departure.
 
Lanai, HI! (Having not watched stranger things, the clue went right over my head.)
I haven't watched Stranger Things either, but I am aware that The Upside-Down is a supernatural dimension on the show.
... which, in turn, led to Lanai's long history as a pineapple plantation and then to pineapple upside-down cake!

(Incidentally, I've never been to Hawaii, but this terminal is beautiful!)

I love how convoluted that path is!

Mason City Iowa - so nondescript its hard to track down - only found it on the assumption that the left side of that was new construction.

This airport is served year round by multiple regional carriers in this resort community that began life as a railroad town. Popular with the rich and famous for nearly a century, today this area remains a place where billion dollar deals are made.

Pullman-Moscow, home of Cougar Gold! Twin college towns too - WSU and University of Idaho, its a very unique piece of the country. I knew this one because of all that new pavement reminded me that they did a major runway realignment up here.

This regional airport currently has a single intrastate flight serving it.


The locale served is home to a beast of an employer.
Because I don't think anyone else got it, Greenville NC - I'd personally probably have leaned on the confusion with GSP :)

Friedman Memorial Airport in Ketchum, ID. Closest airport to Sun Valley.

This airport styles itself an international airport, even though it only has a single intrastate flight currently.

Took me an age to track this one down - Las Cruces NM. I'd been looking at 121 airports, not public charter ops under 135/380 until I remembered that some EAS services were being run under that paradigm. Not that this is a eas route, but thats one small terminal.

Harry Reid International in Las Vegas. The JANET 737-600 is a dead giveaway.

What was with the black blocks?

Just an attempt at a humorous clue - i was emulating redaction as Janet is the top secret employee shuttle airline that flies into Area 51, about which basically nothing is publicly known except that it has a fleet of 6 basically unmarked 737s that does that.

I didn't think it was obviously a Janet plane from the aerial, so good spot! (I forgot that the 600 was a deeply unpopular variant)

OK, thanks! I literally had never heard of Janet until you just told me what it is! And I'm not someone who could ID a plane model in a photo like that.
