Maniitsoq Airport

Maniitsoq Airport (Greenlandic: Mittarfik Maniitsoq) (IATA: JSU, ICAO: BGMQ) is an airport located on Maniitsoq Island, 0.5 NM (0.93 km; 0.58 mi) northwest[1] of Maniitsoq, a town in the Qeqqata municipality in central-western Greenland. It can serve STOL aircraft, although there is no deicing equipment at the airport, which is costly and problematic in Greenlandic winter.[2]

gollark: Losslessness will be tested by randomly generating a lot of inputs and compressing and decompressing them, probably.
gollark: But that sounds like a few cryoapioforms in many ways.
gollark: Well, I could make the challenge be to make your own compression algorithm, with the constraints that there must be some inputs which it makes shorter and it must always be lossless.
gollark: Oh, I ignore that for ethical reasons.
gollark: Did you mean to respond in another channel?
