LOREL + HARDY and BUSTA(Keaton) in London ,all black and white film comedians.
GINIS in Ireland.AAAAAH
Also BULUX in Belgium and nearly a nice place to go VAGNA in France.

There's one in Saudi Arabia called "RAGED" and in Australia there's GAFFA (Great Australian F??k All) in the Nulaboor Plain.

[Shed-on-a-Pole]

My personal favourites are:

DOGIT and KOLID

('Dodge It' and 'Collide' - Geddit?)

Believe there is also ROBUM and RAPEM.

[Han 1st Solo]

FAF at DUS 05L is called DIKMI, always cracks me up when I have to brief it!

Itaw, apud, ycat - all following on one route, near Diego Garcia if I remember correctly .

Nokox, all girl crew heard requesting direct - chaos on radio follows .

[dada]

on the north polar siberian route there is a BOLOX AND TITIE

[pottwiddler]

We were having this same conversation the other week, when THRED and NEEDL came up. DIKAS was mentioned too.

I pointed out that there is a CLITY, but no male pilot has found it!

Sorry....

[Charley B]

NIAKID,ANNET--always made me laugh when I could hear the Lands End Sector from where we lived before!

[Deaf Tortoise]

Madrid airspace has RATAS and GASMO

and as always the humour lies in using the correct accent.

I wonder if EGBKFlyer will make an appearance on this thread, as I know he has been collecting these waypoints for simply ages.....

[mad_bob]

Just South of NCL there are GIRLI and UVAVU....The latter sounds like something Vic Reeves used to say on Shooting Stars and he is from that neck of the woods....

[chiglet]

I can't find the link, but Nick Locke had a web site for all VOR/Rps

[BluffOldSeaDog]

Artha & Daley north of Manchester, UK

[Bullethead]

There are two VORs about 80 miles apart, 250 or so miles southwest of JFK which auto tune in the FMC and they are;

FAK ORF


FlAtrocK and NORFolk

I just about died laughing the first time I saw this.
