Area 51 has a name and it's called Homey, as in Homey Airport. The newsletter of the Aircraft Owners and Pilot Association has noted that the mysterious Area 51 "has been appearing in flight-planning software and on handheld GPS receivers for most of the past year as KXTA (standing for what, extraterrestrial?)."
This is great news, and I love the name Homey Airport. AOPA goes on to speculate what might happen, however, if a non-ET aircraft attempts to actually land at Homey Airport:
Writing at Aviation Week's Ares blog, Guy Norris notes: "In a story with so many twists, turns and blind alleys, the moniker of “Homey Airport” for the lakebed site is a new one to me. Historian Pete Merlin’s excellent review of the Groom Lake facility (see www.dreamlandresort.com) refers to earlier identities such as Paradise Ranch, Watertown and of course the 1958 establishment of Area 51 into which the airfield was subsumed with the expansion of the Nevada Test Site."
Personally, I like Homey Airport.
