I fly out of KNEW which is Lakefront New Orleans...they used "new" out of "New Orleans" for identifier. The airport used to be called Shushan field and before that was an Army airfield. Now, due to some corruption charges involving Mr. Shushan I guess they decided not to use that name. New Orleans International (KMSY) actually comes from Moisant field and Moisant Stock Yard. Some people would call New Orleans approach "moisant approach," at first it sounded weird to me but I used it few times.
