The Manhattan Airport Foundation suggest putting an airport on Central Park. It’s an amazingly pretty and professional site, for what must surely be a prank.
(It’s probably a bit worrying that my first technical objection is that airport runways are better aligned east-west than north-south, isn’t it?)

BBC iPlayer - The Secret Life of the Airport: Preparing for Take Off
Skip forward to ~45 minutes in for an interesting sequence on the language of signs in airports
From the people who brought you The Secret Life Of The Motorway, which was good. I’m looking forward to the entire series. (Shame you can’t get iPlayer embed codes, really.)
