I worked for the FAA and I received a call from someone in the lower 48 who said we had to fill out paperwork because Alaska is a foreign country doing business with the United States. I was speechless for a moment and then asked “you do know that Alaska is part of the United States right?” I heard the caller talking with someone else and said to me “Uh, okay. Goodbye.”

Kathleen – great story, and so true. People were confused about Alaska back then.
