If anything like the RAF; to newly arrived USAF pilot on sector recce: "That's Jabara, that's Beech, that's Cessna and (pointing to 'kin enormous lump of concrete) that's us!"
Except at night that 'ing enormous concrete of yours is invisible. Only lights are visible. From the IAF, KAAO's lights at 7 miles away may just look bigger and brighter than your lights 14 miles away that are not even aligned with the approach path.
